What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: nothing at all
This is my second Harmony remote. I had one in the living room already and this one is for the man cave.
I had 3 device remotes previously. One for the projector, one for the cable box and one for the surround sound system.
Setup is done online, it is extremely easy and walks you through every step.
One button turns on/off everything (before I had to use all 3 device remotes).
Programmable to do different things (watch a movie, watch TV), the programming turns it automatically to the inputs you need with just one button.
I cannot stress enough how much I love these remotes.
Get one, you will not regret it.

What's great about it: Easy to set up and use.
What's not so great: Sound Quality.
Easy to set up. Just plug in the USB and you are ready to go. These headsets work on PC as well.
Decently comfortable and easy to use headsets, but the sound quality is mediocre at best. They do the job and are great for the price.

What's great about it: Easy install
What's not so great: nothing!
I bought this because my Sony surround sound only has 2 inputs. I have a PS3, laptop and cable box I use. Whenever I would use the laptop, I would have to swap out the HDMI from the PS3. It wasn't really that big of a pain, UNLESS I forgot and had just sat down...which happened a lot.
This device eliminates the need me to swap cables. I now switch between devices seamlessly, with no effort. Love it!

What's great about it: I didn't have to do it!
What's not so great: I felt bad watching him do all the work...
I genuinely felt bad sitting and watching this guy hang my projector and put together my screen. I usually do this stuff myself, but after watching him put the screen together I was glad I did. I probably would have messed the screen up pretty badly. Jermiah, my installer, did a great job and cleaned up after himself. He answered every one of my of questions while he was doing it. It's perfect! Everything looks so great we have made it our new living room.

What's great about it: easy to paint, easy to encase wires.
What's not so great: Tape didn't hold to ceiling.
I love cord kits. Cordmate makes it easy to get rid of the wire clutter. Wires are easy to enclose, and it held a lot of wires. I used this for 3 different wires.
2 wires from projector, attached to ceiling (HDMI, Power cord). After 2 days, the tape loosened and they began to sag. I rectified this by purchasing $5 two sided tape at home depot. (3M) So far, it's holding well. The cord kit holding these wires on the wall did not have any issues at all.
Power cables - no issues.
Speaker wire, HDMI (2) - No issues.
Once painted to match wall and ceiling, I am extremely happy with the look. My man cave is now complete thanks to these and I couldn't be prouder of how well it looks.

Purchased a few of these to hide surround sound speaker wires and the coax coming from the wall for cable. You get 10 feet per package. Attached them to the baseboard. Painted them to match, and you can't even tell they are there. Really neatens the whole wire nightmare right up.

What's great about it: Sleek looking, easy to assemble
What's not so great: giant sticker on glass (I just peeled and faced it down)
I bought these to go under my 110" projector screen in my basement. I had 4 componenents, so I needed two of them. Currently supporting a cable box, PS3, surround sound receiver and laptop. Shelves were large enough to fit everything comfortably. I centered them underneath so they look really cool. Had originally purchased an audio tower, but returned it for these. Cost was about the same, but the streamlined look is way better.
Cords can run through the unit in the back but do not stay in, I suggest zip ties for a cleaner look.

What's great about it: Beautiful and clean looking
What's not so great: nothing
Great looking screen. I can't say it was easy to put together, cause I had Geek Squad do it for me...well worth the money after watching him do it. Using a Optoma GT750E projector on it for 3D gaming and movies and I love it. Sports look good too. Sitting roughly 13' from screen it looks amazing. After about 30 minutes into a movie, friends and I both agree, you feel like you are sitting mid way in a movie theater.
This product has... Great image quality, great contrast
About me... Love to watch movies, Avid sports viewer, Gamer

What's not so great: missing wheel spacer
Upon putting this grill together, I was missing a wheel spacer. Nothing huge, but without it, the grill would feel unsturdy.
I called Charbroils 800 number just to let them know it was missing and was not really complaining. They quickly offered to send me out a new part (6-10 business days) to remedy the problem.
I'm still grilling on it until then, and works like a charm.
My packaging was fine, no damage to product and I'm cooking steak as I'm writing this.
Enjoy!

Can this device when connected to the TWC provider deliver lan as well as wifi service
As long as you run the ethernet cords, yes. It has 2 ports for outgoing connections via ethernet. If you need more, pop in a switch or buy a cheap router and use it as an access point. If you are unable to run wires, try using an powerline kit.

If the TV you are recycling is under 32" tube or 60" LCD, they should take it with them. Make sure to tell them when placing your order and they can add it to your order. That way it is on the agents work order when he comes to install. :)

Can I pair my Rocketfish 4 port switcher remote with my TV remote.
I have a bose system, Apple TV , Cable DVR box and the Rocketfish 4 port switcher. Too many remotes, I just pair my Apple TV to my cable remote can I do the same with the switcher?
I'm not sure, but I seriously suggest grabbing a logitech harmony remote. I have a 650 and 700 series and cannot live without them. They run about $80 for the GOOD ones. You can do almost anything with them, including the rocketfish hdmi selectors. Check other places online before you go, they price match.

No signal
Power outage last night, now no signal.......we have three outbound cables....one green light one red light on....can't get signal.....any ideas?
Try unplugging it for about 30 seconds. If that doesn't work, try taking it in to the Best Buy you purchased it at to see if it's still under warranty. If you don't have the receipt, they can look it up for you. Hope you get it working, I love mine too.

Rocketfish™ - Tilting TV Wall Mount for Most 26" to 40" Flat-Panel TVs - Black
This tilting mount is compatible with most 26" - 40" flat-panel TVs and features an innovative locking mechanism for quick and easy installation. The fingertip tilt allows for smooth movement and optimal viewing.
Can this be mounted in the corner of a wall? Or does it have to straight on one wall?
No, you would need a full motion mount for that. I got about 58 hits on this site about $30 and up. Make sure you hit a stud when putting the mount on the wall.
