Sony has newly released three new HDD/DVD recorders, RDZ-D97A, RDZ-77A, RDZ-87 to their RDZ series. The new RDZ-D97A(pictured) is of 400GB storage capacity and 77A of 250GB. These HDD/DVD recorders feature digital Hi-Vision (1080i HDTV in Japan) tuner and two-analog tuners which enable you to simutaneously record three teeveelicious broadcasts. They also enable you to record directly to your PSP to take your recordings.

What's more, the most featured capability of D97A and 77A, appears to be the first for HDD/DVD recorders, is their feature DLNA's DTCP-IP (Digital Transmission Content Protection over IP) to legally stream Hi-Vision recordings to other designated, media kickin’ boxes on your home network.

For RDZ-87, it also has a 500GB disk like D97A but it doesn't have the direct PSP recording and DTCP-IP support.

It is estimated to launch in Japan on May 19.
