Essential buttons including "Record," "Play," "Pause," "Advance," "Rewind," "Skip Forward," "Skip Back," and a directional pad are centrally located, and convenient "Sound" and "Picture" buttons help you tame tough configurations such as switching aspect ratios or sound modes. Harmony's activity-based control makes it easy to manage your entire home entertainment system; just press a conveniently color-coded activity button (?Watch Movie?), and the remote will power on your TV, DVD, stereo receiver, set all the inputs and even press "Play"! There's also a handy ?Help? button so that anyone from the kids to the babysitter can access programming.

Summary: I purchased this as a gift for my parents and for myself
Comment: Logitech Harmony 670 Universal Remote
I purchased this as a gift for my parents last year. They have been using it for the last year and they love it. I love it as well because before I purchased the remote for them I was getting at least 3 phone calls a week concerning how to watch tv /dvd's/ cable etc...It has a feature in which if one of the devices did not turn on with the rest it will trouble shoot it for you (if the receiver does not turn on you click on trouble shoot and it will walk you though tuning it on with a click of a button) I have not had any phone calls concerning operating their home theater setup in over a year.
Great remote for parents or friends who have trouble operating multiple devices.

Summary: Excellent for DVR's
Comment: This is my second purchase of this remote. Mine works GREAT on my DirecTV DVR. My parents had a hard time getting all the settings right when turning on the TV/Tuner/DVR or DVD player/TV/Tuner. This takes all the guess work out of it for them. They love it. A must purchase for those that have a hard time getting around their components. If you are scared of programming, dont be. It is a breeze too. Just plug it into a USB port on your computer and have all your component brand names and model numbers and it does the rest.

Summary: Harmony 670 - Great remote
Comment: I had this remote for about a year now and it really is a leap forward in universal remote technology. It's not perfect but it does 99% of what I need it to do. I highly recommend this remote for people w/ DVR setups.

Summary: Decent remote, but does not last
Comment: I bought this remote several years ago for almost $100 and figured for that price, it would work and last for more than a couple years. While it did work adequately for most functions, there were a few glitches. For example, the tivo controls (FF, RW, etc) were not as quick to respond as the Tivo remote itself. The real problem came when after 2 years several of the buttons used on a regular basis stopped working. In contrast, the FREE remote that came with the Tivo still works flawlessly after years of use. I love the idea of a universal remote, but beware that spending $100+ for a remote does guarantee that it will work.

Summary: Incompatible with modern operating system
Comment: Three people in my family attempted to install this computer on 3 separate computers for approximately 2 hours of total effort.
Although Windows XP found an unknown USB device, the program would not interact with the controller, so we could not set it up.
Next we turned to 2 Macintosh laptops running the most modern operating system (10.5.6). The software was supposed to work for systems 10.3 and above. 2 computers, 2 independent efforts by tech savvy college students, and no luck. By the way, system 10.3 hasn't been the standard in 3 or 4 years....the program updated itself, but still didn't run.
The troubleshooting guide wasn't helpful for us either. We walked through their various suggestions but it was no help.
We hung up after being on hold with customer support for over 20 minutes (never got to talk with anyone) and returned the device.
