Universal Remote Question

I'm looking for suggestions on a Universal Remote for my mother as a birthday present. They swap cable providers everyone once and a while and she gets extraordinarily frustrated having to learn the new providers remote. So our idea is to get her a universal remote and set it up so she learns how to use that remote and doesn't have to mess with separate remotes or learning how to control everything on a different one every 2 years or so.

I know nothing of AV type things, we just have the cable box, a DVD player and an LG TV, might be adding in a Blu-ray player for them soon. No full home theater setup. I also don't think we need a $300 super remote, just something to keep the experience consistent for her.

Any suggestions on what I should be looking for, maybe brand suggestions?
 
I would suggest a Harmony remote for her. You don't have to get one of the really expensive ones like the Harmony One. Something like the Harmony 650 should work just fine for her. It would simplify the whole experience and be pretty easy to re-program whenever she switches providers.
