Thank you for answering/advising in any way you can to help me decide whether to buy it or not.. I will be using it with a Dish HD-DVR (ViP622), Sony TV, Onkyo Receiver, and a Panasonic DVD player. I'm assuming it will work with these.

I notice there are "files" with logos for the various channels here. After I choose an activity, say "Watch TV", can I setup the remote so that the LCD screen shows various channel logos and changes to those channels when selected? How many are available? Just 8? Or can you scroll multiple pages of screens?

I guess I basically would like to know how customizable the remote is as far as programming the LCD/macros/sub-menus, etc.
