It's features are also good. As per my knowledge, I would say that it is hardware issue. Hey dude,

Total bummer this isn't built in. I'm curious to figure out why Apple is shying away from DVR in aTV. Right, that’s what I figured. Total bummer this isn’t built in.

Since there is no way to get TV content into it to begin with there is no way to record TV content on it. There is no way a software update will fix this. This is a hardware issue. I really wanted it to do DVR (might have to buy a Tivo HD today...) but I still think it is a compelling device due to the HD rentals. Downloads will win the HD format war. aTV lacks antenna in, cable card, and any sort of tuner.
