Andy, What the guy told you about recording via the USB port is untrue. When I tested the Panisonic TV models at RNIB last year this was one of the things I was able to do.
You might want to go back and get him to physically connect up a USB drive. You could also ring Panisonic directly.

Hi all - Following Pete Gurney's suggestion, I got some help today from a Panasonic rep in my local John Lewis store. The above TV is great for accessibility, but I'm stumped when it comes to recording programmes, because it still requires as I understand it, an external DVD recorder for this purpose. The TV itself gives spoken programme info for the EPG, and allows for a single click to select a programme for recording, but unfortunately it has no internal PVR, and can not record via it's USB connections to an external drive, so as I understand it, it requires an external DVD recorder, making the built-in spoken menu for recording redundant, as one will have to use the built-in tuner on an external DVDr to set up the timer for recording programmes. Maybe somebody knows of a way around this I haven't thought of? - Andy
