Not bad. That is slightly smaller filesize per hour than the HD-PVR at highest quality. I wonder how they compare in the PQ department.
I have to think the InfiniTV is at least as good as the HD-PVR since the InfiniTV doesn't do any encoding; the data is written exactly as it comes in. You can get a feel for the difference between receiving a digital signal and an analog signal in the difference in file size between the InfiniTV and the 2250 on SD.

Just waiting for SiliconDust to chime in here.

The Ceton sounds like a great product, but $400 is just too much for me, seeing as I've never owned a DVR and can't see needing 2 tuners, much less 4.

Hopefully a two-tuner solution in the $150 range will appear sometime soon. Then I'll be hard pressed not to get one.
