Manage up to 8 of your home theater electronics devices with this Logitech Harmony 700 915-000162 universal remote, which features a brilliant color command screen for easy navigation. One-touch activity buttons simplify device selection.

I chose this one over the more expensive touch screen models, like the 900. I am glad too, because after it is all set up, you just end up pushing one button, no need for some clever touch screen for that.
I did have trouble adding all my devices, but with a mailing to Logitec, they promptly helped me completely.
The downside to this, and all these remotes, is you have to have every device (tv/Blue Ray/Sound System/Cable box) in the exact correct on/off state, because the remote simply "toggles" that state, not knowing whether it is on or off. So, if a cable box happens to be on, and you decide to watch TV, hitting the "watch TV" task will turn every thing on (TV and sound system), but turn off the cable box, so you have to go into "device mode" and restart it. So, it can be a hassle at times. There is no silver bullet, and if you are disciplined, these "gang remotes" tend to work most the time.

What's great about it: Nice Value for the function
What's not so great: Items you are orchestrating may get out-of-sync
I would recommend this to a friend!
