I'm interested in upgrading from my UEI Nevo remote to something newer. I've been scouring this forum and the web looking at what's out there. Pronto is gone, and there doesn't seem to be anything out there like the Nevo anymore. There are the heavy-duty home automation systems available from URC and RTI, and then there are the Logitech remotes, like Harmony Ultimate. The Logitech seems like it might be the obvious choice, but (unless I'm uninformed) it lacks the custom programming capabilities I enjoy with the Nevo. I don't have a very complex home entertainment setup, but I do like having some level of customization ability available. I'm also a fan of good-sized displays, and I find the Logitech touchscreens a bit small.

Is there anything out there that's Nevo-like, at a price point below $1000, that anyone recommend I look at? Preferably from a manufacturer that's focused on this market and won't discontinue their product(s) after a couple years? Also, I really don't care about iOS capabilities - I'm just not one to use my iPhone to control my home theatre - I'd rather grab a remote off the side table.  I do, however, have a robust z-wave home automation system in place, so z-wave capabilities would be a great bonus, although not a necessity.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations.
