BD-019 - A Real Man’s Universal Remote (Vidcast)

I’m not a big couch potato, but I LOVE my
Logitech Harmony Universal Remote.

It’s like no other universal remote. Forget the $20 generic universal remotes you buy in the electronics section of Target. Invest in a serious device for serious equipment.

It certainly costs more, but the benefits are huge:

• User customizable buttons to group specific devices together for certain functions.
• Save time! One click to turn on/off a group of devices.
• Save money! No need to waste all those batteries in five different remotes.
• Save space! Hide those extra individual remotes.
• Less confusion. A visual interface help with troubleshooting by asking you Yes/No questions to solve the problem.
• Get the latest codes online for over 175,000 devices (i.e. TV, DVD, VCR, Tuner, Game system, Satellite box, Cable box).

Also, reduces the chance of kids screwing something up. If they somehow wipe the codes from the remote, simply plug it into your computer and download your custom settings again.

Hope you find this tech tip useful.
