Harmony670 universal controller

[offroadzj]

Now that I have my room just about all set up, I decided to go out and pick up one of the "high tech" universal remotes.. lol. Its the Logitech Harmony 670. All I have to say is HOLY S**T... this thing is amazing. I have every tv (including my projector), both cable boxes, both a/v receivers, my xbox, and even my friggin air conditioner all programmed to it. I can simply select which device, and have 100% full control over it. Also, if i want to watch tv, watch a movie, listen to a cd, or play my xbox, all I have to do is press a single corressponding button to that "activity" and the damn thing automatically turns all of the devices on, and sets up the input sources accordingly. In addition, if i change my "activity", it will automatically power off any device I am no longer using. Now its even got me into looking into the Home Automation remote lighting controllers.... which I will hopefully be getting shortly. With that I'll be able to control the lighting in my living room, my bar room, and both bedrooms from one of 3 switches, or right from this remote control. I am also going to hook up a motion sensor in my living room so when you open the door, it will automatically turn the lights on.
Sorry for the long post, but I am completely amazed by what this thing can do. If anyone is looking for a remote to control everything you own (that is remote control capable), this one is WELL worth the money!!

that's pretty cool. I'll probably look into one once I get my receiver and speakers

I have one of those remotes as well. I have a ton of stuff programmed in it as well, including air conditioners, its definitely awesome. I love the activity buttons...I can hit one button and it will switch the input on my TV, turn on my surround sound and dvd player and hit the play button.

harmony one is the best remote yet... granted its a little more, but worth every penny, IMO
