Portable digital video recorders are a godsend to boob-tubers who can’t live without their daily TV fixes, but the downside to them is that they tend to be large, bulky, and decidedly non-mobile. Not anymore. Comcast and Panasonic have formed like Voltron to bring about the AnyPlay Portable DVR.

The device serves as your traditional home DVR, but can be removed from its dock to allow you to check out up to 60GB of your favorite shows on the 8.5-inch display. You can also view DVDs and listen to CDs with a friend via the built-in speakers or dual headphone jacks. Great news, huh? Well, Comcast and Panasonic have stated that this bad boy has an “early 2009″ release date, so, uh, I’ll guess we’ll be blogging about it again in a good 365 days.
