Newbie here to the site.
I'm looking for a really functional remote to
use on our home theater system and interface with
the Mac (G4). Several questions I'd like to ask.
1. Does the 9800i now have downloadable software
from Phillips to update equipment codes and buttonology,
similar to the 7000u?
2. If so, does the 9800i have similar capabilities
as the 7000u now or, if not, could anyone explain
the differences?
3. Any relevant info would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
OK...I don't run MAC, but the answer to questions #1 is NO. I am extremely disappointed with this unit. Many of Philips older units provide equal, if not more useability features. I CAN'T BELEIVE THAT IN THIS DAY AND AGE THEY DIDN'T EVEN PROVIDE FOR CUSTOM INTERFACES!
