Rating : - Excellent Timesaver!
I purchased this Harmony 880 remote after talking with many of my technophile family members and friends. I wanted something that would work with all my a/v equipment and still be user friendly and easy to use. This remote is AWESOME! This remote takes just a few moments to program online (you have to enter all your equipment make/model numbers), then just follow the prompts, upload the data to the remote and viola! I also purchased the NYKO BluWave remote so I could use my Harmony 880 with my Sony PlayStation 3. Works like a charm.

Special thanks to other reviewers for all the helpful hints on how to set things up, troubleshoot some issues and how to fix them. I encourage everyone to read as many of the reviews as possible, because they include quite a lot of helpful information and fixes.

Bottom line: This Harmony 880 Universal Remote really is Universal. I now have ONE remote which operates EVERYTHING instead of SIX! Color me HAPPY!
