Need New Remote

[Matt34]

Need a new remote for the living room system. Ease of use is a high priority, this remote will be used everyday by everyone in the family. We have used Logitech for the past few years but I'm open to anything under $200 right now.

Edit: Don't need RF capabilities.

I haven't tried them all but I've tried a few. There isn't anything better than Logitech among the ones I've tried.

Unfortunately there still anything as easy for initial programming as logitech, that said I think their quality and materials are substantially worse than URC's remotes

This is the one I use: Amazon.com: URC R50 Digital Universal Remote Control for up to 18 Components: Electronics I'm not sure if they are still in production, so the price is high. I got mine for a LOT less.

This is newer but costs a little less: Amazon.com: URC R40 "My Favorite Remote" Advanced Universal Remote Control for up to 18 A/V Components: Electronics

I am all about easy programming, and as much as I tend to dislike Logitech, their devices are sooo easy to work with. I have had the 890 (broke) the 720 - terrible as it has a slow response time with my cable box, the 1100 Touchscreen which would have a mind of it's own. So as you can see, I am not a fanboy. I will say that the Logitech Harmony One has worked flawlessly since I got it about 2 years ago. I actually bought it from TigerDirect refurb for $149.00. You can usually find it for $200.00 on sale often at tigerdirect (non refurb) or Amazon.
