Life with the Harmony One
I've been down this road with other "universal remotes" before and it always ended with an expensive paperweight my luddite ole lady couldn't operate. So Ian (Los Knuckleshead) and I constantly had to go downstairs or upstairs and change channels or inputs or god knows what else whenever sweetums wanted to go from live TV to a DVD or a CD or whatever.
With the purchase of a new 52-inch LCD, a new AV receiver and a new DVD I believed I was doomed (doomed I say) to a never ending stream of banal "honey can you...." requests from the living room. (Jeeze Louise, how can you expect me to stop the Axis hoardes from overrunning Europe if I have to help you all da time). Rich in Tejas, Forge, L.J, Elapsed and the infamous GroundBeef here convinced me to look into the logitech line of uniremotes and I'm glad they did.
Man, I can now actually go through an evening without interruption. My gam... er research is once again feasible during the evening. I found the Harmony One to be durable (Ian's dropped it several times already), easy as heck to program, and one touch "on" and "off" makes it "puddin' proof". Thanks again for the heads up folks.

Yeah, the H-1 is doing quite nicely. It has developed "doesn't quite fit flush in the charger" syndrome but I'm getting around that. I have to update my macro's now that I've a new Blu-Ray player. It's gonna be interesting to see if puddin still uses it. I'd still buy one.

I sent you a PM to ask that same question, but maybe you can share your secret? I mean, you lay it out there and then you don't tell us how or where. You're killin' me!
Care to share? :biggrin5:
