Replace it with the MX-880 and add the cost to your programming. He probably won't know the difference since it's the same basic remote, but not wizard-hobbled.
I was going to say the same, but then I would have been flamed a lot....
Yes, there are some new MX880's out there and they have the same look and feel.
No, they do not have a charging base, but I use one at home and it's no big deal to plug the remote in now and then.
I actually like the button layout more than the MX980.
Flame away.
