I have an MX-500, and love it, although I've had a couple issues. The "left cursor" position stopped working just after warranty, and just recently the light stopped working. It's not more than 2.5 years old, maybe less. (To be fair, though, there are 3 toddlers running around my house who rarely, but occasionally, get hold of the remote; this may be partly to blame for the backlight). That said, I will roll the dice and replace it with another 500 or better, maybe a 650 or 700. The 500 can now be had for about $85.00; the MX-700 for about double that. www.bluedo.com will extend the warranty to two years on the 500. It's highly customizable, and has been able to control everything I've thrown at it. Plus I'm comfortable with it, and can probably clone my existing one to a new one.
