Stand-alone Blu-ray and HD DVD recorders have yet to arrive, but a few laptop PCs already have a built-in high-definition DVD recorder. When used with an ATSC tuner (typically included) or CableCard-equipped video card, those pricey portable computers can record HDTV broadcasts and let you watch high-def movies on the display or on your HDTV.
Sony unveiled its first laptop with a Blu-ray burner last year and now offers several. The VGN-AR590G ($3,300) comes with an HDMI output and a CableCard-ready ATI TV Wonder TV card, which lets you access digital cable subscription channels without a box.
