Abstract: If you're more interested in using a genuinely powerful remote control with your HTPC than a thinly disguised keyboard, Logitech's 'Harmony' line is a deservedly popular choice. Of course, most of them cost well over £100 and are therefore too expensive t...
Comprehensive device database, Good ergonomics, Colour screen
Only five devices allowed, Setup demands patience
The Logitech Harmony 650's five-device limit seems stingy, but great ergonomics and high-quality build maintain the standards of this illustrious series. Just prepare for a couple of painful setup hours before the bliss of a one-remote home setup becomes ...

Powerful universal remote with great ergonomics; color LCD screen surrounded by five contextual buttons; Web programmable via Windows or Mac PCs; excellent button layout and overall design; supports custom sequences/macros; sub-$100 price tag
