199$ for 605 WiFi with 4GB flash memory and SD card slot. Also called 605 F (Flash).

Your Archos TV+ records TV (DVB Satellite/DVB-T/TNT or analog), it downloads your shows like Podcasts or VOD on-demand (RSS) then you simply put your pocket-sized 605 WiFi on the dock to synch up content from Archos TV+ to your portable Archos 605 WiFi, as well as it could synch up wirelessly over the Internet or over your local network. As well as 605 WiFi can record and download all the content autonomously.
More info about the TV recording using program guide at archos.com
If you don't want to have an autonomous Archos TV+ Internet connected VOD DVR, there is also the 80$ normal DVR:

Looks like the current (4G) DVR. From what google's transcribed, the new DVR (aka ArchosTV More!) will have HDMI, RGB, USB, Ethernet, and a built in HDD (ranging from 80-250GB for 220-300€).

Note the Real Video format support in plugins, and the "..." at the end. Possible Vorbis support?

I'm actually happier with my 404 now more than ever...
One question - it never says if the Gen5 players can use the Gen4 DVR Station?

This remote with integrated keyboard is awesome to use for Youtube, Dailymotion, VOD, Podcast download client or to rename recordings directly on the TV. I hope we can also use a small portable foldable keyboard usb while on-the-go.

I wish the 30GB & 160GB has a SD or HCSD slot too
Does the stand alone DVR record from an HDMI source? That would be a FIRST
