The 1100 isn't as popular as the other models but if you like touchscreens then it should work just fine. Just remember you need to work with the Harmony activity model, not against it. Define your devices, power settings and inputs and then set up your activities according to how you want to use the devices and let the Harmony do the work of powering on and off and selecting inputs. If you run into problems with a device not responding to commands and the HELP button fixes it - try increasing the inter-device delay.
