HD recording via cable is impossible without a cable card slot in the USA. And to get a cable card slot in your product you have to get certified which adds major $$$ to any such product because the cable companies rape you for the licenses. So the likelihood of a PS3 or 360 becoming a DVR in the USA is practically nil. The cable companies force you to use their lame products and they hold all the cards.

luckily Verizon is maving into the cable business then. =]

Verizon is not going to be any less proprietary.
