I need some help fiding a new remote. I currently have a Sony RM-VL900 but I need something more effective. The problem is that it doesn't have enough buttons for each component and I have buttons programmed to do things that are completely different than what the button says (for example, I ran out of room for the cable box set and had to use pause for the exit command). I had to split the commands for my ReplayTV onto 2 different components. Half of the less frequently used functions on my DVD player are not programmed in at all. I'm guessing I'm going to have to go to a touchscreen remote to get one that has enough buttons although I'd prefer not to. Basically, I want a remote that will give me all (or nearly all) of the commands for each component and I want the buttons to be labeled correctly yet to boot (tall order, huh?) My wife couldn't play a DVD to save her life because a number of the buttons that need to be used are "hidden" within other buttons on the remote. I've been looking over on remotecentral.com but wanted to get some opinions from you guys on this. I don't have to go real cheap with this, but need to stay under $200. Is this do-able? I gather a Pronto would suit my need swell, but that's too much $$$ for me...
