Streamlined Convenience

This remote is neat. I finally got fed up dealing with four remotes and bought this thing. I bought the adapter for the PS3 as well, which I highly recommend. I really enjoy that, during setup, you can decide which devices control volume and channel changing, and so forth. There's not switching the remote to the A/V receiver to change the volume and then switching it back to the cable box to change the channel, like a typical universal remote. I press the volume buttons and the receiver turns up and down, I press channel, and the cable box changes channel. Very convenient. The option to put an icon on the favorite channel screens is pretty slick, too. The fit and finish of the remote and system is superb.

The setup program did not quite know how my TV worked and so the activity buttons did not properly switch the TV inputs. I had to call support to get the problem fixed. I was referred to "second level" support and was on hold for about 35 minutes before I spoke with the very helpful and knowledgeable tech guy. He fixed my problem, and actually streamlined the overall function of the activity buttons.

Once I got all the aspects of the remote working well, it's great.

What's great about it: Feels nice in the hand, light up buttons, versatile screen, great functionality

What's not so great: generally need to use both hands to get at all the buttons, setup was tedious no Wii connectivity

I would recommend this to a friend!

Ease of Use

Durability

Which cable do I need to connect my MacBook Pro to the Panasonic - VIERA / 50" Class / 1080p / 600Hz / Plasma HDTV Model: TC-P50S1?

So, exactly which cable should I buy If I want to make the TV a huge monitor for the computer?

Considering that you don't have S-Video or HDMI, your best bet would be a USB adapter to your preferred method of TV input.
