Can you give an opinion of whether the RC9800i is a better or worse option to a Pronto TSU7000.
I am currently using a Pronto TSU3000 and want to upgrade to Color. I am familiar with the Pronto software and can use it well enough to create usable macro's etc.

The RC9800i is appealing however for the MP3 streaming and appearance.
Your earlier comments concern me that the MP3 streaming wont work unless I also use a Steamium product which at this stage I don't intend to do.

Would you summarise the RC9800i as part of the Streamium range and not a universal remote to be used with a non-streamium home theatre?

I found 1 seller in the USA advising that they had the RC9800i in stock, do you know when you will see the final product and final firmware?
