Sagem DTR 64160: Pretty cheap, but not all that pretty
Crave Sagem also claims this box will save the world and reduce your electricity bill, by using just 2W when in standby, which is reasonable for a PVR. There's also a picture-in-picture mode, which allows you to watch two channels at once.

LG Renoir review
Reviews LG rates its battery life at 350 hours standby and 220 minutes talk time. There's also a panorama mode, but it doesn't compare with the Samsung i8510's automatic panorama, which we were extremely impressed with.
