No reason not to try one.

Unless I spend five hours and give up in frustration. :)

But be aware that using 2 in
the same room will cause issues since each remote will
be keeping track of the status of each device.

I understand that issue and accept that if on remote 1 I tell it to watch a movie, that I'll have to do the same on remote 2, if I want to use remote 2 to control the DVD player, for example. On my current set up with the Sony VL900's, the commands are sent to change inputs, etc, but since they are already in place, they are ignored.

Currently, I don't have any power on or off commands as part of my activity switching -- I hope I can do the same on the Harmony's.

The software now has a local GUI that replaces the browser
interface (but you can still use the website interface).

I forgot to mention that my desired OS is Mac OS X. Do they have a Mac app, or am I limited to either using the Web interface, or running the Windows app via Parallels (virtual environment...)

It is a little better but it still needs the internet
connection and still stores the configuration in the harmony
database.

Thanks for the info.

John
