DVD VCR combos. with ATSC tuner.

Does anybody know what combo unit or just dvd recorder has a True HDTV ATSC tuner that will fully resolve HD TV signals??? I realize you can"t record them because of the format for now.

panasonic and lg make one for around 200
or you could buy a tivo as well.

the dvd vcr combos have a atsc tuner but do not record or display HD in any way, but the tivo will record and display HD.

Thank you for the info. I have the Tivo Series 3. This is what i compared my combo recorders to. There is a difference. I will look into the Panasonic and the LG.
