The damn thing is so good, it even learned me something...:D.

Thanks for the heads up on this one. It was a pleasure to put all those remotes in a drawer. Now I have to figure out what to do with the 25 or so double A batteries I no longer need.

Rocks, drop me a link as to where you got it..

Thanks

FYI...The upper end models of the Harmony remote control RF in addition to IR.

That sucks to know.:( I bought the Harmony 880. I am afraid to look, but with my luck the next model up probably would have been RF. I already opened this one and threw out the packaging....they aren't going to want to trade me out.

Oh Snap...Idea!!!!!!! Dana...buy mine so I can get the next model up. I'll only mark it up 10% since we are friends.

I thought 180 plus shipping was good. Think about the support I give. It's all about the service after the sell. You know I will always be around...who knows if that internet whore sight will even exist in a few months.:evil

I don't know what you do with your remotes...and don't believe I want to know, but my remotes stay nice and clean:cool:.

I'll probably just hang on to this one. The next one up is a dramatic price increase and about all I gain is the possible use of it for my Bose surround system. Not really worth it for the extra 100 bucks and the pain in the ass of shipping this one to you. I have been wanting to upgrade to better surround sound for awhile anyway. This might just give me the excuse I needed.
