This is All You Need!
I was contemplating getting some of the higher priced logitech remotes, but im soo glad i didn't!
I payed only £40 for the remote and it does everything that i need it to. If your not very tech orientated you may get a little frustrated setting this up perfectly, as there are loads of options and settings to get things perfect, but still the software is clear and concise and will guide you thorugh what you need to do in clear steps.
The remote is well put together and feels good in the hand, the digital display is not as fancy and flash as the Harmony One and the other colour screens, but are you really going to show your friend your remote???..."Um, heres my remote look at its colour screen, oh, ah". I think not.
If you want a very customisable remote with hardly any fuss and cost, this is the one for you!
Highly impressive
Bought this remote a few weeks back and was very impressed - the girlfriend is now extremely happy at only having to press 'Watch TV' to turn on the multitude of home cinemea gear. I have it controlling my Sky+ HD, Cambridge Audio DVD, Sony LCD and XBox 360. I was so excited about the prosepect of controlling the entire living room that I hopped over to lightingdirect and bought a remote controllable dimmer switch. I can now turn the lights on and off too!
I chose this remote over the harmony one and 1000 (seriously considered) due to their lack of coloured buttons which would be highly annoying for operating SKY+.
Particularly impressive about the harmony setup software is the ability to assign buttons to any operation of the orignal remote but also to setup macros. For example, I have a macros called 'Planner' and 'Anytime TV' which go straight to those screens on Sky+ (operations otherwise requiring 2 button presses).
The only downsides to the remote I think are that the rubber transport controls (which are used alot on Sky+) can be pushed in too far if pressed too hard (over zeolous girlfriend) but these can be fished back. Also, the 'clicky' nature of some of the buttons makes it slightly less fluid to flick through the channels than the original Sky remote... but am more than happy to have this trade-off for a device that replaced about 6 remotes.
Absolute Harmony
I bought this from Amazon last week I am very happy I did.
Set up took about 30 minutes, which was straight forward. Any problems I have had have been very quickly resolved from within the remote controls help function.
It has replaced 6 other remote controls flawlessly. It even controls my Macbook Pro's Front Row.
I would recommend this to anyone for anything.
