Philips DVDR3390

Anyone have any experience with the Philips DVDR3390? Like to divide titles of my +RW discs. Realize many readers here only do one recording per discs. Not me. I do as much as 3 and want to be able to divide titles. I bought Panasonic ES15 a week ago and like it except can't divide titles. With the Panny, I guess I could end each recording early than published (1:58 rather than 2:00 hrs.) and then start next movie later than published (2:02 rather than 2:00 hrs.). But that might get to be bothersome in a short time. I've had one Philips and one Magnavox before and very much like the set up and features--including dividing titles. But they both stopped recognizing discs between 1.6 to 2 years.
Would like something that will last longer.

I just got a DVDR3390 aka DVDR 3390 for $129 on sale at Frys. Seems to work OK so far, but the user interface is cumbersome. It's possible to delete commercials, but takes many steps to do that. Haven't tried splitting a title yet, but the procedure is described in the manual, which is available in PDF online from Philips. Philips offers extended warranties.
