On another note, I'm going to love the stored variables for controlling the Power On/Off of my home theater system. Will make macros fool-proof.
And also, the ability to emit more than one macro at a time.
And, for those who need feedback, the dynamic reporting on-screen of what the remote is doing as far as "TV turned on", "Receiver Turned On", etc. Great for the less nerdy/geedky/gadgety of those in our households.
Also, what are we going to see in the files that come from the users with 64,000 colors and animated GIFs?? WILD! A straight import of Animated GIFs, GIFs, JPEG, and BMP graphics. Some cool stuff is going to going on on-screen while the MX-3000 is doing its thing!
And, while the screen is not the size of a laptop, it's horizontal orientation actually makes it more useable in my mind, especially considering the shape of the remote.
Anyway, I've had the please at CES of playing with a very early prototype that add minimal software, and it really has the WOW factor for sitting on your coffee table, and even more of a WOW factor when you get a great setup going.
And with the variable tracking, it is going to be a very easy remote to use. Also let us not forget the great RF setup as well.
Can you tell I'm kind of pumped about this remote, even though I'm am a "button" person? It is a cool remote!
