I am in the same boat as you. I have two TSU7000's (one as a back up) and was considering one of the samsung tab units as they have an IR blaster built in. I thought that was going to be the answer but found out later the Android doesn't have the capability to read codes from the remotes that came with an AV component. I also looked into a few systems that use the home LAN (wifi) but that looked expensive and very difficult to set up. It also sucks that there's no driver support for the 7000 using WIN 7, 64 bit. I am at present using WIN 7 pro and running XP virtual within 7 to use the ProntoEdit NG software. I really like the TSU7000 but at some point will probably have to make a change and I haven't found anything to date that's as easy and as intuitive to program as the Pronto series remotes!!
