Anyone own the Logitech Harmony remote?
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...Id_34_L23-7326

TigerDirect has refurbished remotes on sale for $49.99. I'm thinking about getting one.

Anyone have one? Good reviews? Bad?

Well, after a week of use I have decided this was a complete waste of money.

I am a device hopper and this does not account for that type of use.
It does not accurately control my TV.
I have to push more buttons on this than I had to on my receiver remote that controls everything I have.
No dedicated buttons on the actual face so I have to flip through several screens just to do one thing and it does not allow you to adjust the order the buttons appear on the screen.

Its up for sale for anyone that is willing to cover shipping.

Harmony 720

You must be getting old. I suggest having the kids figure it out. It'll be much easier.

and here I thought you knew me well enough to know better.

Nah, I've done everything possible and it flat out does not function the way I need it too. This was designed for people that literally just want to press one button and put it down. Of course, it doesn't even work that way for me because it continuously screws up the TV functions and has to go to the help button to remedy it. EVERY time. the whole purpose of the help button is to solve the problem so it never comes up again. Not the case on my system though.

The fact that I can't turn the tv on directly to the tuner is the most annoying thing though. I can go to any other input directly with it but not the tuner. Not the most important part of the TV. Go figure.

Rant off.

i eliminated 4 remotes with my harmony 720. I think it's great.

I wish it were a bit more programmable, like being able to define a specific script of key presses each time I do things, specific for what action you are coming FROM as well as going TO, but it's still great. it took some work, but i got it programmed to pick specific inputs correctly and turn everything on and off exactly as I like it to.

No more battery replacements either. Since I got it for $50, it was money well spent

Which is why I am offering it up for sale. Surely somebody else can use it. It just doesn't cover it for me.

Oh, and I was down to one remote as well without the Harmony. I just should have avoided all the hype. heh

You bought the wrong model, IMO. I think the 720 is the worst of the line.

Should have bought an 880 or a Harmony One.

Uh, $45. Nuff said. There was no way I would go over that. Even that was pushing it for me.

Either way, the fact that I have to scroll through screens is dumb. More button presses than I have already.

Was really hoping at least one person would be interested in this. It is a great product for the right people.

Oh well. Live and learn. I bought into the hype and paid for it.

Maybe, but I can think of a lot more useful things I could have used it for now.
