So, I decided to snag a deal on the Harmony One by Logitech. Wow, am I impressed buy the simplicity of setup. The software that comes with the remote is very smart and it was configured in a matter of minutes. It helps to know the exact model numbers of your devices but those are easy to find. So far I have a TV, HTPC, DVR, Receiver,Roku box, and DVD player all configured. I was just sick and tired of having 5 remotes laying by me at all times. This little bad boy even controls my HP Pavilion laptop and its Windows Media Center functions. I have to say this is by far the best universal remote I have ever used. It retails for about $180.00 but it can be found for about $140.00.
Highlights:
Easy setup
Rechargeable
Backlit buttons
Custom activity macros
Tons of advanced features
Ability to basically control anything
If you already own the remote, here is a nice resource for favorite channel icons you can upload to the remote via the software: Logitech remote icons
