I am looking at getting a universal remote to control my home theatre system. I was thinking about the Logitech Harmony 890, but after reading some reviews I am not sure. Is this a good remote? If not any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Something in the 250 to 500 dollar range. Thanks for the help........:cool:

    I replaced a Phillips TSU3000 and bought the 880 and have been very happy. Easy to use and real easy to program.

    I replaced my Philips TSU7000 with a URC, Auroya remote control and haven't looked back since. The Logitech was my second choice but the URC remote had more programming flexability. If your doing a simple H/T setup, go with the Logitech, if you have more things in mind, you may want to look into URC remotes keeping in mind URC are far more complex to setup than Logitech's. Just my thoughts.
