 Don't Waste Your $$$$$ August 6, 2008
J. E. G. (Denver, CO United States)
My remote is two years old. I paid over $150 for that remote and I expected it to last more than 2 years. I may be naive - but if I had known it only had a 2 year life I would have passed. First the zero key went out. The eight key only works 1/2 the time (and you have to push it down really hard). And today I was disgusted to find that the fast forward key is not working. If I had it to do over I would NEVER NEVER NEVER purchase this product again. Save yourself the aggravation and avoid this product.
The remote will not charge in the cradle unless you put a weight on it to help force it to make the connection.
I also want to add that this remote has never been dropped - never gotten wet - there is no reason for it to be falling apart.
Overall I regret this purchase and I am posting this review to help others avoid wasting their hard earned cash.
 Great Product - Great Price - Fast Delivery! August 4, 2008
Ashton C. Moran (Jersey City, NJ USA)
This remote is by far one of the greatest remotes available to the general public. With one button, I can turn on everything needed to watch tv, listen to music, watch dvds. I love it. I ordered this product on a Friday, and received it the following Tuesday... I'm telling you, you'll look forward to going home, kissing your wife and kids, and holding your remote everyday after work...
Super product August 2, 2008
Bud Bundy (MN USA)
I had an old universal remote, but with all the specialized buttons on equipment these days, it had become obsolete. You pretty much have to have something with a screen that can display the correct names of the various specialty buttons, or else you need to be really good at memorizing stuff.
I not only wanted something that could control EVERY feature of EVERY device, but it also had to be convenient. When you have to go into the receiver mode to change something on the receiver, then into the cable box mode to change something there, then into the TV mode to change something there, well, it's actually easier to just pick up the remotes that came with the devices than to push all those buttons on the universal remote.
I'm happy to say that this Harmony 880 does everything I could ever want a remote to do. It can easily control every feature of every device, but also do it with the utmost of convenience. I really didn't think too much of the "Activity" mode before I purchased this, but once I started using it, I realized it's a truly brilliant idea. It makes all the difference when it comes to convenience. For instance, in the "Watch TV" activity mode, I've programmed the remote to control all functions of the cable box, allow me to go into the menu on the TV, and control often-used features (like surround sound mode) on the receiver, all at the same time. Without having to go into different modes on the remote. Very, very cool! Of course you can choose which button controls what, and label the buttons next to the screen exactly the way you want them.
But nothing is perfect - I was having a problem with programming certain buttons in the software, after which I would hit "Done", which is supposed to save your changes, but my changes weren't being saved. I called up Harmony support, and got a hold of a very nice gentleman from Canada. We figured out the problem - I had programmed the exact same command into two different buttons. It doesn't like that. Once I deleted one of those, everything went back to working perfectly.
I'm using Windows Vista, and other than the little confusion I just mentioned, the software seems to work just fine.
Overall, I couldn't be more pleased with this item. It truly does everything I could want it to do, allows total customization, looks very stylish, has an excellent button layout, and even has a recharging base so I never have to worry about running down the batteries. A solid 5 stars.
 Is A Nice Toy August 1, 2008

Is a nice toy but after a while the simple remote that cam with your TV or satellite receiver is much simpler to use and will do most of the function of this one. I can tell you that the web site is pretty user friendly and the remote is easy to customize. Otherwise a great replacement for all the remotes in your house if that is what is what you are looking for.
Bought for my wife... August 1, 2008
Peter Benton (Elizabethtown, PA USA)
Bought this after doing much research and finding out about the $[...] rebate in the discussion area. Easy set-up, and accomplishes what is advertised. I have four components for it control (TV, DVR, Receiver, and DVD) and three were in the online database. My receiver was older, but with a very simple "learning" mode which the software walked me through, it "learned" that remote functions also.
The only "problem" I had was with my DVR, until I realized I had set it to receive RF signals only. Once I reset it to IF, I was golden. All in all, initial set-up took about 30 minutes from the minute I put the CD in my laptop drive until I had a working remote.
My wife was thrilled when I showed her last night "just hold the button that says "Watch TV" and lo and behold, the TV came on, the receiver came on, and the DVR came on.
I still have some "tweaking" to do, but this is a great product, especially for $80 dollars. I highly recommend it to all.
