Need help on buying a universal remote

[simonsparker]

Prob try to stay around $200 range.

If you have that much budget so I recommend that Logitech Harmony One is best for you, but it has no RF supported, but the other features are very nice. I search some very best buy store during search.

The one doesn't have the colored buttons, but you can program the touchscreen buttons to be used as the colored buttons. If you don't need RF, then save money and get the One. The 1100 is nice, but you need both hands to operate it, so I still prefer the One.

GlocksRock is right on all counts. You can, of course, program any button on another remote to a button on the touch screen and I also do not like two handed remotes.

Bear in mind that, at least from the looks of it, the 1100 has far fewer hard buttons. Almost all buttons would seem to have to be on the touchscreen. There are two advantages to having more hard buttons. First, as you learn your remote you will be able to find the button you want by feel. Second, there is a limit to how many commands they can fit on the touchscreen at any one time. So with more hard buttons you do not have to scroll through touch screen pages as frequently to find the command you need.

Yeah Im prob going to go with the Harmony One. I just wnated some thoughts on all three tho. Ive looked into all of them and the One is really the only one I need plus its only $125 vs $200 since Logitech is giving me 50% off because my Harmony 880 isnt workn very well, that was the only reason I was think bout the 900 or the 1100 because of the 50% off.

Let us know what you end up getting and how you like it once you get it and have it all setup.
