my current remote harmony 650, is almost dead. my kids have dropped it so much the arrow keys don't work.
I'm looking for something cheap but durable. I use the programmable buttons on the remote to launch Sagetv, XBMC, and WMC, depending on what I'm doing.
possibilities.

or a basic windows MCE remote (my old one lasted like 5 years!)
I'm leaning towards the harmony 300 but one thing I HATE about my current 650 is that the slightest bump causes it to reset. I mean sitting on the couch and let it fall 6 inches onto a cushion and it goes back to it's first menu.
I don't want the same problem with another harmony.
I think a regular remote with play, pause, and arrow buttons would be best for the wife. although the lenova one looks kinda cool
so, any suggestions?
