Anyone using one of these, How are they?
I've heard they are better than some of the Logitech Higher brands..

    Thanks ZLTFUL for the insight.
    I have a Harmony One but find it lacking in the LCD screen area, and difficult to program exactly the way you want it..
    I picked up the ARRX18G for $50 so I figured I would try it out, even if I don't like it at be resell it..
    Thanks Again

    Yeah my local computer store has been shocking me lately with many good deals that I would have never looked to them for..
    Those URC remotes look nice but pricey like you said, to rich for my blood..
    My favorite looking remote was the Logitech 1000 I think, it was just a big touch screen with a couple of buttons, If I went URC I would look for one like that otherwise they look all the same to me..

    Yeah hard to go wrong at $50 for a ~$200 remote.

    We do have 2 shops around here that sell URC stuff but mostly their home automation gear. I am stopping by there on the way home tonight to ask them about getting my hands on a TRC-1280.
