I have to say I am pretty happy with it so far (I too bought it at Costco).

A couple things are just really nagging at me:

1. Philips choice of graphics/colors could have been better (at least themes)
2. Custom functions cannot be relabeled (yet other things can) Huh?
3. "List" button appears, but is not in any codeset (pre-learned or not) Bug?
4. I have to live with Philips decision on which buttons get on which page. I would like to have all the transport controls AND the normal Info, Guide, LiveTV, etc for my TiVo on one page. Philips decided to break them up on 2 pages (and there is room BTW). This means hitting the hard page button, but it only goes one direction (there is no forward page or back page). This means sometimes cycling through 3 or more pages just to get "back" one.

I wont even get into the fact that the remote has to be in the cradle to route music to the audio out...

I am on the verge of returning it, but still undecided. I think the only remote I will be truly happy with is one that I can totally customize with a PC/Mac, and of course those are out of my price range.
