That URC MX-500 is a great remote. URC, www.universalremote.com, has a similar one I bought from Amazon for what I think is an amazingly cheap $50. Does everything the MX-500 does but has just 5 LCD buttons compared to 10. Each device can have up to 8 pages of them, though (= 40 extra custom labeled buttons). It also can take a while to set up as it's not computer programmable. But it's gotta be the best $50 remote out there... The URC-200 link at Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00067R5XW/ref=pd_cp_e_title/103-3399858-9563821?%5Fencoding=UTF8&v=glance&n=172282. A great detailed review at Remotecentral, http://www.remotecentral.com/urcseries/index.html. Review of the MX-500, http://www.remotecentral.com/mx500/index.html. Tons on good info on remotes there. -- 808htfan ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 808htfan's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1298 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28639 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
