Harmony 880 & PS3

[02ViperTodd]

I'm just starting to use my PS3 as a BD player. I don't want to buy the PS3 remote control if the Harmony 880 will control it just as well. I'm not interested in anything else other than the 880, I've got it on 3 different systems. I just want to know how it performs with a PS3 or should I continue with 4 remotes on this 1 system..
Thanks,
Todd

You will need an IR to Bluetooth convertor in order for the 880 to work with the PS3. This can be found:

http://ir2bt.com/ <- expensive solution, but greater control

Thank You, ordered from Amazon. I really just want to be able to pause a movie..THanks Again

The blu wave is awesome, I use that with my Harmony One and it does everything except turn the PS3 on and eject discs.

For anyone interested, the blu wave remote is listed on the Harmony programing list. Just made it that much easier.

I just ordered one. I was trying to hold out for a universal that would handle BR but I give up!
