you are right. i was personally impressed with the Harmony one after watching a few videos on the internet and reading a couple of reviews; however, aesthetics are important cus it for a person who uses http://cache.gawker.com/assets/image...10/serene1.jpg for a phone :ghey:

It's alright. It'll control anything.

A few lame issues:

It doesn't sit on the charging dock right. To get it to charge, you have to carefully place a weighted object on some area of the remote to get it to make the connection.

It's quicker to get up and change channels than going DEVICES --> selected device --> whatever.

My roommates think it's too confusing.


It's nifty, but it's nothing I would pay a bill for.
dont have this problem with charging. dont know what's wrong with your control/charger h:

i wish it was for me

it's a gift h:



how well does the battery last on these color displays?

do you have to charge it more than twice a week?
i charge mine...maybe once every week and a half or so. i've never had to charge it twice in 1 week

some 880s had this problem. the cradle was slightly misshaped so it doesn't sit correctly all the time.

easy way to fix it, put a small piece of paper on the opposite side of where the contacts are or if under warranty call logitech.
