This is by far the most functional universal remote we have used - perfect combination of the touchscreen and physical keys. And is the best looking as well. If only it didn't give so much a scare to Macbook users! With the RF module as a part of the pack...

Expensive, Overkill if you only have a few AV components, Glossy case shows fingerprints and dust, RF range not as long as claimed, Can't create custom macros
Touchscreen adapts to specific situations. Feels great in-hand. Massive device database means it's compatible with most hardware. Simple macros jump between entertainment center functions. Rechargeable battery lasts at least several days away from cha...
