Nathan, the Harmony can do all of that stuff you just mentioned.
EDIT: With the exception of the Devices and Activities being separate buttons...although you can click the device button and swap back and forth between the current activity and your devices list.
and the Harmony does these two things as well:
-The off button shuts everything down.
-When switching activities, the remote shuts off what needs to be off, but you can also specify what devices need to stay on...example: I like my cable box on at all times (for the time function), so when I switch over to something that doesn't use the cable box, I don't have the box turn off - not even when I hit the main power off button.
So it's definitely just as flexible as your JP1
