There are Panasonic DVD Recorders with built-in Freeview Tuner and probably other branded ones, but whether you need a DVD Recorder is another thing.

I have looked but can't find.

What is the cheapest Freeview Box with at least an in-built 40GB hard drive? Thanks

Also, with in build hard drives, do I need any other equipment to record? Or is it just a case of plug in like a regular DTT box and I can record straight to it, or do I need some sort of other equipment to be able to record?

Basiclly, can it record straight out of the box? Thanks

Yes you can record straight outta box if it has built-in HDD.
Cheapest I found are with 80GB HDD
