New DVD recorder. Recommendations?

Hi, I currently have a TiVo & VHS VCR hooked up to my NTL STB. A combination of the dog knocking a cup of coffee over the Video (and blowing it up) and some rather disturbing rumours about TiVo's future (basically, it looks like Murdoch is looking to launch a Sky+ style PVR over in the states and TiVo's major suppliers are looking at using it) mean I am looking to replace it (and the video).

Now, I will say that due to the dish (it *will* cause major hassle for me to have it installed), Sky + is NOT an option.

So, I have decided I'll probably get a DVD Recorder/PVR combo. Ideally, it would need to be able to work with (and control) my Samsung NTL box. I would also like to get one with a good programme guide (TiVo's is excellent and shows programmes up to a month in advance).

Anyone have any ideas (bearing in mind that Sky + is not an option - partly because of the grief it would cause me, and partly because there is no DVD-recorder built in)?

I was looking at the Pioneer DVR-920H-s
