Hi Yusuf -
I have taken this from the Which website about this particular Panasonic:
Connections on this TV include four HDMI, two USB, one Scart and one SD card
slot, making this model very versatile if you want to view photos and
connect HD or standard-definition peripherals.
However, the USB slots can't be used to insert an external disk for PVR
recording, like they can do on some other TVs.
Do you know the models in particular, that you looked at/tested at the
RNIB? -

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? -
