I don't consider a recorder that can only sync to an incoming timecode signal to be a true timecode recorder. It must be able to output as much as input- when on set, more often than not, the set's code is generated from the sound mixer.

The HD-P2 is about $1K (so a couple hundred bucks more), but I'm not a fan of it either... Sound is mediocre (for mediocre sound on analog, I'd just as soon stick to my microtrack and save a few hundred bucks), layout is questionable, software and menus are cumbersome... It'll do the job, but I don't really like it.
