That guy's a jerk. If those are the only shortcomings
of the "1", he really needs to get a life. He admitted
Logitech is already working on the first issue. And, if
you want colored buttons, buy a children's remote. I mean,
come one, if that's what is preventing you from considering
the "1", you really have issues. What's the purpose of
the remote? I know the argument that colored buttons make
it easier to find certain functions, but from what I see
with the layout, it will be very intuitive. If you must
rely on colors to find the proper buttons...my, my, my....you
have other challenges.
You really don't understand the need for the coloured buttons for us Europeans, do you? My sky box (satellite receiver) remote has 4 coloured buttons used for a variety of common tasks. They are just that - coloured buttons, with no text. Similarly, the colours are used for teletext on the TV. Yes, they can be mapped to the LCD but that only leaves 2 'slots' free. For me, that will mean I can't get all my most common items onto one page (as I could with 6 slots free). Maybe that's not an issue for you, but it is for me.
And why is the guy a jerk? What is he saying that you don't agree with? I'm sorry to say, but his comments seem more reasoned than your own...
