I believe it does not record and if you connect a Cable box through it it only acts as a pass through to your TV so its almost useless... unless you care only about limited for now online content. Its more or less similar to a Roku.

It's a GoogleTV box (ie, Runs a specific version of Android and connects to the GoogleTV marketplace where you can get other apps).

Think of it as being similar to Roku in that you can add 3rd party apps, such as netflix, plex, xbmc, etc.

The only interesting/original thing about googletv is that because it uses an hdmi passthrough, the googletv interface gets overlaid on top of your current video signal. So, when you are watching a tv show, and you hit the google tv menu button, you still see your video, but the google tv menu appears at the bottom. To be honest, I found this annoying when I was running sagetv as a passthrough, so i no longer use the passthrough feature.
