I’ve been a big fan of Logitech’s Harmony Universal remotes for a long time….even before Logitech owned the product line. I’ve owned two of these magical devices and still manage to “Wow” my friends with this incredible device. However, the price range was not fit for just anybody with some units costing you anywhere from $100-$300. But, because I am a geek, I bought one anyway and I can proudly say I’m still impressed with how easy it was to setup and how easy it is to use. Today, I am happy to share that Logitech has released a new Harmony remote that will only set you back $49.99. This is truly a great day for everyone! How easy is this remote to use? Simply download their free software to any computer, plug the remote into your computer with the supplied USB cable, tell the computer what equipment it has, answer a few questions and then hit “Update.” In just a few minutes this remote can completely program itself to run over 5000 different pieces of equipment and do all the magic it took multiple remotes to do. For example, when I hit the Watch DVD button, it turns on my TV, ensures it is on the correct input, turns on my receiver, sets the correct receiver input, turns on my DVD player and starts playing. No more messing with complicated macro functions or programming. If for some reason it doesn’t do what you want, you hit the help button and it walks you through the process of correctly turning on your devices…..it couldn’t be easier! So, if you are tired of gluing all your remotes to a piece of plywood and calling it your universal remote command center and want to get rid of all those bad boys, you may want to check out the Logitech Harmony 300. It is certain to be a great device for your home theater at a price point that is attractive to just about everyone. Check out the article from Engadget.com for more information.
