Over at GearDiary, Judie has posted a review of the Harmony 890 that I recently put together:
Well, I did it. I didn’t think I would, at least for a while, but I did it. I bought the big screen LCD TV, I bought the DVD player, I bought the AV receiver and home theater speakers, and I ordered digital cable. It was a sad day for my wallet, but a happy day for me. It’s something that I’ve always wanted - a top notch mini home theater of my own.
I soon found out that there was an issue with controlling all of these devices. Four components makes four remotes. It’s not that four remotes is confusing - it’s annoying. If you need to make an adjustment to your television and all you’ve got is your cable remote, on go the lights, and a search party begins. I needed a universal remote - but a good one, an intuitive one that could bring all of the advanced functionality of my componentry into a simple and centralized place.
