7. Conclusion

On the whole my experience with purchasing, setting up and using the Tevion TSD-DR40HD
as part of our home entertainment environment has been a positive one so far. This unit had to
be replaced 3 weeks into the warranty period because of a faulty disk drive, but hopefully we
now have a facility and a setup that will last us for a couple of years until the global and
Australian introduction of digital TV forces us once again to invest more monies in new
equipment. My only concern, based partly upon negative comments on the Internet, is that the
unit may develop hardware faults, but at least there is a service agent in Melbourne (Pebble
Electronics).
One problem was that the documentation supplied with the device was woefully inadequate,
hence this document, which is available as a PDF file at the following webpage:

My wife is still of the opinion that we should retain the good old VCR, and indeed there have
been occasions when we have wanted to see three TV programs all bei ng telecast at the same
time. The solution then has been to record one on the VCR, another on the DVR and view the
third one live on TV. Also, she is not impressed with the many remote controls we now have
lying around. However, an alternative is to make all of these redundant by means of a
programmable Remote Control such as the Logitech Harmony 880 Remote Control.
