you will not be sorry buying this remote. It has good features along with good integration of LCD and analog buttons that are very easy to press. I tried getting that stupid RCA remote... but it was a flop... it couldnt control anything. Buying this remote will mean an end to Honey... i can figre out which remote does wha!? If a code to a remote doest work... its ok... take a second or two to teach it!!! It even works with TiVo. WOOOHOOO

Cons:
After using a Sony AV remote for a few years I was used to a touch screen. This one has all hard buttons. Aesthetically, its not as appealing. However, after using it awhile, I realize I can see the buttons so much better than on the touch screens, expecially if small print is a problem for you. The backlighting is excellent and you can see the labels in bright lighting as well.
The ease of programming in this device is unbeatable. There are several buttons that can be programmed for macros. It has a
push button jog wheel that makes it compatible with any device such as a Sony TV that has a 4-way plus enter type button design.
The pre programmed codes are only partially usable since there are so many codes for every manufacturer and but I recommed learning the buttons individually after editing the labels on the 10 buttons for each device plus the already labelled buttons (power, mute, menu play, etc.)
All in all this is an extrmemly easy to use rmeote that does anything the more expensive universal remotes do. The only feature you dont have is a touch screen---who needs that anyhow. They just look better than they work.

Pros:
Easy to program. Easy to use. Easy to navigate. Very strong signal. |

Cons:
After one month of use I have found none! I don't think I've ever reviewed anything were I was unable to come up without any Cons. This one is a first.
At first glance the size and the magnitude of buttons appears intimidating. But then, as soon as I programmed my first codes for TV and Satellite receiver into it, it all started to come together and make sense.
My remote control graveyard welcomed it
