I agree that you pick your poison. I have stuck it out with RTi over the years because of Integration Designer. I have plenty of remotes out there still doing their job. Most of my clients have "moved on" to iPad minis and their iPhones. They love them and agree that it is way easier if they drop one. It is going to happen. Their kids use Ipads and are very comfortable controlling the system with it.
APEX brings and new set of challenges. If RTi abandons ID then I will have no choice but to move on. I will not support that fiasco. I have put way too much time into ID and have an easy and simple interface for my clients with feedback. All RTi needs to do is improve the graphics selection and IP drivers list. If they spent their time on THIS instead of trying to fix what is NOT broke, they would allow us and them to make money, service our clients, and continue down a great path.
