I want that remote!

[ChePazzo]

So, it looks as though v6.0 is officially released. At least, that's what's being advertised on the main SageTV screen.

But there is a photo there of a really cool looking remote control! What is it? Where do I get it? What does it do?

I think it is a Harmony 550.

go with the 890! Treat yourself.

i went with this one:

and love it.


i use it with the streamzap's ir sensor/drivers. works well, and makes it easy to control my PS2, Sage Box, tv, reciever, and dvd player... if only my turntable had remote capabilities, i would never need to stand up...

so, why do they tease us like that and not sell the remote pictured on the webpage?

Nah, can't beat my Phillips Pronto NG

Since they don't, I feel there's nothing wrong in posting info on how to get it, and cheap.

The Logitech Harmony 550 Universal Remote is being sold for $75 (expiring today) at Dell Home with free shipping. Use the 35% off code 602QJ5X65H?$VN to get the discount.

Personally, I use JP1 enabled remotes and own multiple URC-8810's. But understand the appeal of one like this, and always out to help people save money.

Enjoy!

so what's it do that's so cool? aside from how it looks?

What's the software like with that? Does it allow customization of the "interactive display"?
