Is it "really" worth $100?

I'm having a hard time justifying a $100 remote control for my HT, but i need something that can control it all and the easiest possible.

I still like the new kameleon since it only shows you the buttons available for that device, which i like. But i don't like the idea of having to change batteries every two weeks as well.

If its as good as I hear then yes, definitely worth it. I invested $100 in a Sony RM-AV3000 and have been thoroughly satisfied.

I was checking out that one as well, but after playing with my dad's LCD, i decided to go another route. Some form of tactile feedback is a must for me.

Hehe, well is the 680 worth $20 more?

 

[nageov3t]

yes.

I have the one RossMAN posted the review to, and it rocks. Whenever I watch tv at my parents house, I'm frustrated by the need to use more than 1 remote to control their HT system.

Yeah, it does make it a tad hard to just blindly use the remote but you can assign the most important functions to the tactile buttons. At this point I can kinda just guess where about on the screen the button I want is with pretty good results.

EDIT: What you need is this

I'm not sure but there seems to be one major flaw in the 659, SHORT BATTERY LIFE

Is it as bad as the Kameleon at dead every 2 weeks?

It's pretty badass. I just got one and am absolutely loving it. Setting it up is amazingly easy and customizable.

My friend has this remote and he thinks it is worth every penny. I just wish I had enough money for my own HT system.

4 AAA batteries. I have to replace them about twice every three months. I did get rechargeable batteries, though, just to save money.
