There is a $10 off $100 coupon that was just released that is good for all customers (not just new) - search Google or check out the site in my sig for the coupon link. You will have to add something to your order to get the total over $100 - try a cheap book or something else - just make sure that item also has free shipping.

This is a great remote. Anyone that has it will tell you how useful and easy to program/use it is. Check out the review and forums at RemoteCentral.com for more info.

Excellent deal on a great remote. Anyone looking for a remote to control all of their gear should check this out. I use it and love it... everything I could want.

Not as "cool" looking as a Philips Pronto or the like, but I prefer the tactile response of real, hard buttons. It lights up in the dark, which is great for pausing a dvd or whatever. It can learn from any remote; I currently have it controlling 6 devices.

My favorite part is the macros. With one button press, all my gear turns on and sets itself up according to what activity I want. For example, to watch a DVD, I push the DVD button and the TV comes on and switches to the right input, the receiver comes on and goes to the right input, then makes sure it's in surround mode, and the dvd player comes on and starts playing. When I'm tired of DVDs, I push the CD button and the receiver switches to the CD input, adjusts to 5-channel stereo mode, and the CD player comes on. When I'm done, I push a button and every component turns off.

I have had nothing but good experiences with this remote. It's also simple enough so that my girlfriend or guests can use it to control an otherwise intimidating system.
 
Wonderful remote. I wish I hadn't just purchased it locally for more, but it was still worth every penny! My wife loves the interface, and the lighting as well as the lack of touch-screen make it easy to use in a pitch-black room, without looking away from the TV, etc. 🙂
[edit] forgot to mention, works quite well at controlling a Tivo!
