    Remote For Christmas

    I would like to find a good universal remote for my system. Of all the people who on
    on this site, there must be a favorite. Any recomendations?

    I would like computer programablity, maybe touch screen and spend less than
    $ 400.00

    Thanks

    refurbished pronto TSU3000 can be had for less than $400, sometimes available on Philips' website or remotecentral.
    If you go this route make sure you get a docking station

    Yeah with your budget I suggest you go with the Harmony Remote 880 for around $175 or so online or the 676 for $125 online Anything you saved from your budget can go to me in an effort of Christmas Cheer

    I don't have any idea how it compares to the one mentioned above but at eBay Klipsch is selling Phillips Pronto $300.00 dollar remotes for $100.00
    http://stores.ebay.com/Klipsch-Audio-technologies
    I'm not sure how to make it a clickable link without the www.

    I second, third, and fourth the motion for the Harmony 880. If you ask me, touchscreen remotes are useless. It shouldn't take both hands plus having to stop and look at a remote to press 1 button.
