Recommendations for HD player, HD recorder, etc?

Hi,

I am looking for a box which will connect to our 1080P Sony TV, via HDMI (no other way I can see) and does the following

- Plays HD DVDs
- Plays normal movie DVDs
- Plays CDs/DVDs with MP4 files (and hopefully some other Mpeg formats too)

- Has a HD recorder

- Has a Freeview receiver

- Can run Iplayer and 4OD, using an ethernet cable connection for the internet

There must be loads of such boxes on the market, but it's hard to compare them on the brief specs published. I wonder if somebody here has such a box they can recommend.

A quick trip around Comet etc reveals very little which actually does all this, and no way to find out e.g. the DVD player compatibility.
