Just think of this new device as a portable TiVO, it’s basically a portable media player with a built-in PVR. Pace is hoping to slim this prototype down before its made available to cable operators. It features a 40GB Hard Drive that is able to record broadcasts from either satellite or terrestrial broadcasts. A dock is provided with the unit which contains video input/outputs, recordings are also encrypted with a conditional access code that protects TV Shows and Movies from being pirated. For your viewing pleasure, a 5″ LCD Screen is also built-in to the machine that has a battery life of 3 hours. Planned release is Quarter 1, 2006. Source: [Ubergizmo]
