                                                          The Panasonic DMR-EZ48VK might be your best bet. It has 1080p up conversion, allowing you to record non-HD TV in HD quality. Looking at the product sheets it has quite a few other features that may be quite useful. It comes with a remote and is very slinder. It would be what I would get.
