The owner's manual for the Venturer SHD7000 is finally up: Link
So we can compare it with the existing Toshiba models.
Which one should we compare it with, exactly? Let's proceed by elimination. The second-generation models had the drive on the left, and the third-gen on the right. The SHD7000 has the drive on the right, so we should compare it with 3G models. It doesn't output 1080p, so that rules out the A30 and the A35. That leaves us with the HD-A3.
Okay, let us compare it with the A3. The Toshiba US site doesn't have the A3 manual available for download yet. Fortunately, it is up at the Toshiba Canada site.
All pictures are posted A3 first, SHD7000 second.
1. Front panel
Differences:
The A3 has two skip buttons, and a pause button. The SHD7000 doesn't have them.
2. Rear panel
Here absolutely everything is identical.
3. Front display
The display for the A3 includes a (non-used) p alongside the 1080i signal. Otherwise identical.
4. Remote
5. On-screen menus
6. Inside pictures
Awaiting material.
