Logitech Harmony 1000

"When you think of a consumer focused remote control which doesn’t require an installer to put in, what comes to mind? A $20 universal remote from Radio Shack? Logitech is hoping you’ll think outside of the box with the recent unveiling of their latest Harmony remote control called the Logitech Harmony 1000 Advanced Universal Remote. The Harmony 1000 trades in the plethora of buttons and stereotypical remote look for a sleek new industrial style design which consists mainly of an LCD and just a few basic controls. The overall design of the Harmony 1000 is fairly thin and rectangular in shape."
The other members of the Harmony series provide a great value for the money. With this newest remote, they've gone with more of the design features of the higher end remotes. Unfortunately, these new features also come with a higher end price of $499. Also, I don't like the two handed design and prefer real buttons to a touch screen interface.
