Just as an FYI, the WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) for my tech habit is much better now than it was before the harmony. She knows all she has to do is press the "Watch TV" button to watch the TV... Before the harmony I used to get 2/3 calls per day at work from her asking how to put a film on for the kids or what needed to be on to watch loose women etc. Culminating in threats of violence against my electricals or even divorce!
It is expensive, but it is worth it!

I've had various Logitech remotes and this one is the best I've had by far. One reason is the hub that comes with it.
The hub sends out IR signals, not the remote so you don't have to point the remote at your gear while it turns stuff on/off. Also comes with IR blasters for stuff in cupboards. Recommended and heat given.

I was advised to get one of these by a super user who swears by it, I just missed the deal in the near year and set up a camel watch. Little did I know it would miss the lightning deal. Thanks again HUKD for providing!! Thanks to Mr No.

Echo the comments above, this is a fantastic product. Highly recommended if you have multiple devices connected.

I've had mine for a while now and it's a great remote. I've also got the new Elite Pro which does very little extra for the huge difference in cost (basis this deal)

It's not a TV remote though, it's an "everything" remote...if you can control it by IR or in some cases by Bluetooth, then this will work (and learn new commands if your kit isn't on the Logitech database).

It can.

*currently* as long as you have infrared on your pc it can... That's how I use it.
I say currently, because there's talk of being able to control using bluetooth (which the hub supports) and emulating mouse and keyboard - but it's not available yet.
