PS3 has a launch date of late 2005 in Japan.

Googling for sony psx tuner revealed a page that said:
Sony has launched its first consumer electronics device ... will bundle within one device a PS2 unit, DVD recorder, satellite TV tuner and a HDD-based TV recorder (genre of HDD-based "VCR" devices is normally known as PVR). PSX comes in two varieties, only difference between two models is the size of the harddrive and obviously the price; cheaper option at appx. $720 has 160GB of HDD and the $880 unit has 250GB.

PSX has broadband connectivity, games (as well as the PVR options) can use the included harddrive, device has USB1.1 port, remote control and virtually all the goodies that regular PS2 users need to purchase separately to their units if they want to.

Recording to a DVD-R or DVD-RW is possible from unit's HDD and PSX also supports analog audio and video inputs, including s-video, which allows easy transfers from analog sources to DVD-R. Unfortunately device is only available in Japan and at least so far doesn't support digital TV or digital a/v sources.
