The MX980 is our most popular remote and we sell it on most of our one-way jobs. With that said, the MX990 is awesome. It has a better feel in the hand then the MX980 and the same capabilities. Hopefully there will be no bugs that come up (a la the dimming screen on the MX780) but we are fans so far.
NOTE: If you have existing MX980 templates you will need to modify them. The templates/pages don't import cleanly and you need to tweak button placement. You'll see what I mean when you try it for the first time.
See our Youtube page for info about smart homes, great audio and more.
