I have a Harmony remote and I'll tell ya, these things are a breeze to program.

The remote in this review is pretty good, but I really want a Harmony 1000 biggrin.gif

yea i already have a harmony 686, but it's on it's way out.

and my dad has the harmony 1000, and while it's really sweet, i prefer tactile buttons on my remote control, it just allows me to get to frequently used buttons faster. But the 1000 is pretty damn cool, i will admit that.

but thats why i chose the harmony one, it combines the touch screen of the 1000 with the features of the harmony 880 smile.gif

I have a 520 and programming it is a dream. Not only does it have more flexibility than any other universal remote I've used but it's also very easy to set up. Win-Win.

The only downside is the price. I got my 520 for $40 back in the day, and now I'm looking for a second one (for the bedroom). They're $60 refurbed now, but even then it's pretty hard for me to take a $250 one seriously. $250 for a remote?! From the reviews I've read there are very minor differences for the ~$200 price hike. Plus I like the shape of the older ones much more than the new "hourglass" style.

They're great remotes and they do seem to have a relative monopoly on ease of programming, but I still just can't understand paying that much for a remote.

The One is really nice. Its comfortable and fits the hand better than the 890. The 1000 is just awesome one you hook up the wireless extender.
