Hacky,

I have tried a number of remotes. (I am somewhat of a remote fiend, starting 25 years ago when I designed and built my own remotes as a kid.) And I like the T2 the best, although it's not perfect. I would like tranport buttons on it, for one thing. Also, the RF is unreliable, which is a major drawback. I had a RC2000 with RF and it worked perfectly in the same room.

However, all in all, the T2 is a great remote. The software (also with some design flaws) is very good. I love that you can save configurations and try different things but are only 30 seconds away from any old configuration. Also it's great for exchanging files.

All of my equipment has either explicit or hidden discrete codes, so sensing devices (i.e. power or video signal) are not necessary for me. You may find the same. Sometimes the codes take a bit of searching.

The pricing you have seems rather high. Maybe I don't understand what all you're getting for $1800.
