I'm looking for a new remote control and was convinced that I needed a hard buttoned remote. Now that I think about it though, my current hard buttoned remote controls every function I need to control in my setup. The problem is that half of the functions are hidden on mis-labeled or poorly labeled buttons. The way I see it, the only way to truely remedy this situation is to go to a Pronto. The MX-500 would be closer, but is still not up there with the Pronto in terms of always having all of the buttons labeled correctly and in terms of macros. So it seems that anything less than a Pronto would be a compromise in terms of adaptability and customizability. The question is: would I grow to love a Pronto or hate it? The ideal thing for me would be to buy a Pronto and try it out for a while. But since I would buy it online due to price, it would be a royal pain to return one if I didn't like it.
Anyway, I'd like to hear from some people who have changed their mind on which they prefer and why. e.g. you bought a Pronto and thought it would be great, but ended up hating the lack of hard buttons or you never thought you'd like a Pronto but love it after using one.
Thanks,
Brian
