The editors didn't like
Expensive
Overkill if you only have a few AV components
Glossy case shows fingerprints and dust
RF range not as long as claimed
Can't create custom macros
Incompatible with earlier Harmony remotes
No way to transfer existing activities/devices from old to new remote
No macro support
Swapping out a device isn't as simple as it could be
Lack of OS 10.6specific documentation caused us needless confusion. Can't control most bluetooth devices
Needs $60 adapter to control Playstation 3. Advanced users can't program macros within macros for functions like TiVo's stepped fastforwa...
Abstract: Radio Frequency (RF) technology is one of the best things a remote control can have. Since it doesnt need a line of sight to your equipment (like infrared does), an RF remote will let you control your system from anywhere in your home. RF is to infrar...

Price will scare off some buyers; PS3 control requires add-on dongle.
The Logitech Harmony 900 is, hands down, the best universal remote control weve ever tested.
This form factor, plus the included charging dock and the RF to IR blasters make this the best remote package Logitech has right now. We've been fans of their standard remotes for a while, but combining the keep-your-eyes-on-your-tv ability of those w...

Abstract: So it's back to the project of getting a decent Dolby 5.1 home cinema sorted out. This, however, will clearly lead to unwelcome additions to our growing menagerie of remote controls. These currently number six, with a total of 217 buttons, of which I know...
Sleek design; programmable from a PC; excellent button layout and design; high-resolution LCD touchscreen; rechargeable li-ion battery; included RF option is very easy to set up
Price will scare off some buyers; you need an add-on dongle to control the PlayStation 3

Setup compatible at myharmony.com, Sleek design& excellent build quality, Touchscreen & physical key combo, Keys have differing designs for better touch location, RF module included in package, Dock for charging remote
It costs a whole lot of money, Doesn't get along with Mac OS X, Very glossy body, for the most part
This is by far the most functional universal remote we have used - perfect combination of the touchscreen and physical keys. And is the best looking as well. If only it didn't give so much a scare to Macbook users! With the RF module as a part of the pack...
