Tru2Way , DVR/DVD - Comcast and Panasonic

I was supposed to have published this back in January, some how it got lost in the bit bucket.

Tru2Way DVR/DVD - Comcast and Panasonic jointly introduced AnyPlay, a portable combo tru2way DVR-DVD. It looks like a regular portable DVD player and also a DVR that works like a Tivo. It sits in your living room by the cable box and then undocks and becomes a portable DVD player with recorded TV shows or other content.

Can Tru2way succeed where CableCard failed?
