Doesn't quite fit your bill, but I have a Lite-on LVW-5006, and I believe they now have the LVW-5045 with HD. The 5006 doesn't have a proper epg (not sure about 5045) but at ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£180 it does very good DVD recordings and can use almost any media.

Looking at the Pioneer - main drawback I can see is the use of 'minus' media only. DVD+RW is much more versatile in a PVR type environment than -RW, but otherwise it looks good.
