I am new to this forum, but let me throw in my 2 cents worth. I purchased an IRIQ on thursday, brought it home, tried to set up my first device, ...nothing!! I am about 15 feet from my equpment rack at about a 30 degree angle, i have a clear glass door over my gear. I couldnt get any codes to work for my YAMAHA 795, so I learned the power button and still nothing, walked over in front of the reciever and it worked, this $400 dollar remote has the worst IR range of any remote I've ever owned.

I returned it the next day and went to a different dealer and bought a PRONTO. Man is this a nice remote, IR range from hell!! The screen was easier to read, page setups made more sense and looked better. The only thing I miss from the IRIQ/TK is the thumb wheel.

Again I'm new to this forum and am not into bashing just for the sake of bashing, put simply the Pronto kills the IRIQ/TK in every way (except the thumbwheel =)
