Sad to hear Harmony remotes aren’t doing well for Logitech; http://www.theverge.com/2013/1/23/3909934/logitech-q3-results-harmony … They are hard things to sell, but once you’ve bought one…
@chrisphin I've never understood why touchscreen universal remotes don't just have an image of the actual remote that you can prod.

@bazzacollins Because then you’d only be replicating half a dozen remotes, having to switch to each, rather than Harmony orchestrating all.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@bazzacollins That is: Harmony automatically switches inputs for activity, changes focus of, say, volume buttons appropriately.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@bazzacollins@chrisphin Now that would be a waste of money. All it would overcome is having multiple physical objects. -
@chrisphin@alstonebridge Replacing 4/5 physical remotes is what people want. Home screen could deal with universal basics such as vol/chan. -
@bazzacollins@chrisphin Replicating their layout doesn’t reduce the brain power required. You’d be left lumbered with each one’s quirks. -
@alstonebridge People are already familiar with the layout of Sky remote etc; it's the new layout/missing buttons on Logitech that confuse

@bazzacollins@chrisphin I tried the logitech remote about 18 months ago. Way too complicated, awkward to use Wrong answer to wrong question -
@jonhoneyball@bazzacollins I think you’re both wrong. Set-up is, yes, a pain, but use is amazingly easy. -
@chrisphin@jonhoneyball@bazzacollins single button press wakes HTPC, stitches stereo on, sets inputs and launches Internet radio. Great!!!
