You can do better for sure, I got mine at Newegg. I wanted to stick with an authorized dealer for warranty purposes

Anybody ever use the Harmony 880? I like the look of the the LCD sceen, but I have heard that it dims over time.

I bought one for my brother here. Pretty good prices and they're reputable.

I'm interested in the ease of use factors well (aka - please she who must be pleased). Home Theater Master MX-700 is the one I'm leaning towards, but also looking at the Harmony brand. Audioholics has a great review of the MX-700. Also check out remotecentral.com and surfremotecontrol.com (Help coming from the link police!)

Congrats on the remote Rick, I believe you'll really enjoy the it.

>>>> Anybody ever use the Harmony 880? I like the look of the the LCD sceen, but I have heard that it dims over time <<<

I've had an 880 since they have been out and have never ran into a problem with the screen dimming...the cradle and charger have been the Achilles heel of the 880, but I've had my cradle replaced without any further problems.

I've seen the MX700 and Harmony 680 and feel the Harmony is easier to setup and to use. (I own the Harmony)

I wonder if the 880 is worth the price difference over the 688.
