I have a Harmony 1000 that replaced the previous version to your Sony remote which I have, and the Harmony remote is far better (difference is day and night). Although it's not the same model that you have, I would assume that you set it up via their software which is super easy to navigate and really slick. You have nothing to worry about, they are great units and their customer service is top-notch.

The only reasonable argument for owning a gun is to protect yourself from the police.
