Well, the boss and I decided to jump into the RTI pool headfirst and so far I love it! I just finished my first RTI remote, a T2C (for personal use), and think it is a GREAT piece. Also, super easy to program (should make for some good margins). I love hard buttons but I'm trying to get used to the channel buttons and volume buttons being opposite of my old MX-950. I'm looking forward to picking your brains. Cheers!
