zomg dood get it

I did. It should be here on wednesday.

Doesn't it do the same thing as a $20 remote from walmart? Turn the TV on and off, adjust the volume, and change the channel

I havent found a $20 remote at walmart that will control my HT, DVD, DVR/SAT, TV, and CD. My current remote (without Pc programming) wont control everything out of the box and has a limited amount of memory for learned commands. I cant fit all the commands for all my equipment in its memory.

I just want one remote that will have every function for all equipment.

One hell of a remote, still a little expensive. Although it looks cool.

my uncle has the one you wanna get, the charging station is horrible for it, it takes like ten minutes and just the right touch to get it to charge

Harmony remotes are nice. I use to work at Best Buy and they always had one in our demostration area. Its nice being able to press one button and it will turn on your reciever, tv, and whatever else on all at once and turn anything else thats not necessary off.

I have a $20 Sony Walmart Remote that I can program from other remotes, so I can make it do whatever I want...without spending $200 for a fancy little screen

I considered the 880 when it was on sale for $99, but i didn't really like the button layout. The rechargeable part is nice but i have read a lot of bad reviews for it so i decided to pass.

Then i saw this one for $49 and decided it was what i wanted. The layout seems just about perfect to me.

Learning remotes like that are ok, except you inevitably run out of memory to program more buttons.

I have had this remote for like 5 years



as i replaced shit with new equipment it didn't have the codes and i had to 'learn' more and more functions... eventually it just couldn't hold them all in the memory.
