TIVO like device records a week's TV

I can imagine someone getting enough storage into a box to record a week of TV but who would have thought it possible so soon? Right. Well the device has to cost a fortune when finally released and I can't imagine it going over too well with broadcasters. Just think, when I was a kid I used to record episodes of Battlestar Galactica on a LLENOX tape recorder and I thouhgt I was cool and from the future.

"The box was a prototype of a digital video recorder from Ascot start-up Promise TV that can record and index an entire week's worth of digital-television programming.To Doctorow, an editor of the popular culture blog BoingBoing and the Electronic Frontier Foundation's European outreach coordinator, Promise TV has broken impressive new ground with its DVR, which it plans to unveil next month."
