Abstract: Video Review: As complicated as gadgetry can become, sometimes it's good to keep things simple. That's why Chris Hardwick and Olivia Munn examine the Harmony 1100 from Logitech, a universal remote that can turn on multiple components with one touch, a ...

If flashy toys are your thing--and you happen to have equipment that works with Harmony remotes--then the 1100 might be for you. If, however, function is more important than form, you’re better off with a universal remote that rocks more physical bu...
