Pioneer DVR-A03, buy it?

[nytr0x]

Hi, I'm looking for a DVD-R recorder and have almost settled for the Pioneer DVR-A03 but this site http://www.avland.co.uk/pioneer/dvra03/ claims its discontinued and a new model is due soon. Does anyone know whats coming soon, or if another make is better? Thanks in advance.

Short answer: I don't know when the A04 will hit the streets but it MIGHT be worth waiting for. What extra features will you get and at what price?

Hi nytr0x:
Maybe The HP 100i Might be better!

Thanks for the replies guys, since I want to use DVD-R for the best standalone compatibility I think I'll hold off for the A04.
