Jeff, I'm gonna restrain myself here. . Take a look at this thread and follow some of the links. It's a pretty complete information set and will provide you with a wealth of information.

A quick summary is that it is a $349 remote that can be gotten as an "open box" for a bit more than 1/2 price. Unbeleivably powerful and user friendly with programmaning on you PC. If you are looking for a univeraal remote AND you'd like the wife/family to be really happy with ease of use, this puppy needs to be in the top 2 of you list .

Take a look at the thread and see what you think. Several folks on the forum, as you will see, have gotten one and they seem pretty pleased. If you've got any money left following your recent HT binge , this remote might be worthy of consideration.
