Very Functional, Wife Friendly, Room to Improve

I run this remote on a 3 zone system, so I Can access, XM Radio, TV, DVD, IPod, in different zones of the house. This is user friendly. With this complexity the unit tends to lock up at times, and you have to pull the battery out to fix the problem. Battery life has been fine, I did have it go dead one time, but it was not an issue. The unit itself is a bit fragile, needs stronger case or a cover; it would not survive a drop to the tile floor very well. My wife uses it well, and the help function is great, unfortunately I have to use it several times. The programming time was very long greater than 5 hours, but it could be the fact the TV, and receiver is all new release items and the codes are not developed yet for the remote. A great deal of programming had to be done for the HD cable remote, and the zones... All in all it's a very solid tool, easy to use and with the exception of it locking up, it will fix itself.
Very modern, easy to program remote

The primary reason for going for a universal remote was due to my wife being unable to simply turn our home theatre on!!!!! After extensive research on which remote to go for I decided on this Logitech harmony 1000i and I am glad I did. It has done all I wanted and more. After programming this unit (which took about 3 hours of fine tuning - not the 1 hour I have read before) I gave the remote to my technophobe wife and within 10 minutes had turned everything on and was able to switch from pay TV to DVD to free to air easily and quickly without ANY explanation from me. It is very easy (once you know what your doing) to alter the configuration and setup through the computer program. Probably the BEST feature on set-up of this remote was the help line. I had one little issue with being unable to figure out how to switch the TV from HDMI to LINE1. I called the help line with a very dubious attitude that I would even get a human on the line but I was very happily surprised when I got one of the most helpful people I have ever spoken to on a help line AND THEY RANG ME BACK!!!! UNHEARD OF!!!! They ran me through how to change this and that and were clear and concise on every little issue. I still have more programming to do on the receiver but all in all it was a quick and very easy set up process and with the help line there to guide you through I am growing more and more impressed with this item. It has taken 7 remotes and put them all into one. Exactly what I was after..... and it looks great too. Sure, there are bigger and better remotes out there that can do a lot more than this unit can..... But what do they cost and will my wife be able to use it without any instruction from me????? I doubt it.
