I started looking further into getting a Harmony remote tonight. I see that the new 880 is out, but the color screen is no big deal for me, and I have heard a couple of issues with getting the remote to sit right in the charger base. I like the charger idea so that there is no battery swapping, but two sets of rechargeable batteries can fix this issue as well.

So, I think I have it narrowed down to the 680 and 676. The 688 doesn't seem too popular, so it made it easier to rule that one out. Out of people that have these, what do or don't you like about them. What are the main differences other then the button layout? How did you choose one over the other. I think I saw that the 680 has hard buttons and soft for the 676, is this correct? I don't care about the faceplates for the 676, so that part is not a factor for me.

Any suggestions/advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
