Hey Guys.
Basically im using a Xantech Zpr68-10 for a multiroom system and and i need a small single source remote with CD transport contol and volume up/down only. It has to be learnable/downloadble because of the RC68+ codes. The idea is to have these remotes in each room so the client doesn't have to think to hard, also why there needs to be only a few buttons!
What remotes do you guys use in similiar applications?
Thanks in advance
Mark
PS The weemote is ideal but its a little to bright!
If only it was that easy!

Man, I am so bummed but the MX200 is perfect for this. Too bad they stopped making them. That remote would be perfect in so many installs I do. I have had all my distributors call their big HTM dealers to see if they had any lying around from MX700 packages (when they were packaged together) and can't find any. I am sure there ae some hidden in dealers desk drawers or other hiding places, but I am can't find them.

Honestly, I am really bummed they are no longer available. It was perfect with macro capability and everything.

I am also in mourning. The little guy was SO strong all of the way up to the end(sob).
I think the biggest problem was that he was overlooked. If you had one, you could realize the 'joy' of having him around(or available). Otherwise, it looked like a little extra that nobody really thought much of. Pitty the uninformed. Tis a sad day. I sure hope mine never quits.
Lets think positive and hope URC will release an updated version (maybe with transport) soon.
Every day is a good day.......some are just better than others!

I am not holding my breath. I was with Hank a few weeks back and he assured me that it was a misunderstood product that they will never start making again.

Bummer.

I did find one on Ebay for $70 - but comeon.

Heh, if only they'd release the MX-250 I designed back in 2002.
