The Tascam HD-P2 is a great all-around choice.  With quantization
rates as high as 24/192, great preamps, timecode input, SPDIF in/out,
and 10 second pre-roll, the HD-P2 is in a class by itself when
compared with anything for less than $1000.

Speaking of preamps, Raimund Specht's tests of preamp self-noise show
that the HD-P2 noise level is within 1% of the Sound Devices 722. I'd
call that a tie.

The HD-P2 also performed well in Rob D.'s recent comparison of
recorders that cost less than $1000.

The HD-P2 is commonly sold for $999.  I recently saw it for $900 at
The Sound Professionals.
