Hi everyone,

I'm posting my thread here since I was suggested to to have more inputs :P

Although I am new to these forums, I've been reading them for quite a while! :)

And since I renew many electronic devices in my home now and have a gagillion remotes I figured out it was time for me to ask "THE" question that comes to my minds.

Logitech recently released the Harmony 1000 which based on the differents opinion on the forums is pretty descent, but limited in terms of customization and lacks WiFi capability. However compared to the Nevo SL it had RF capability. But the Nevo fits good in the palm on your hand.

Now I know there are features which really are based on your personnal needs, but in terms of really comparing those 2 remotes, which one would you guys (and girls?) recommend to buy?

As for me moment what I want to control is my A/V receiver which is pretty standard (Sony), HD TV LCD (Samsung), HD PVR (Scientific Atlanta), and PS3(but I know it's only bluetooth so well whatever, we just hope they(Sony or whatever company) will release some usb dongle to enable IR. Although there are some tweaks available with PS2 hardware. But anyway I still will have to control it with the bluetooth remote i've bought for it in the meantime so I know there is no chance for me moment any remote will control it, as the PS3 is my BluRay player).

So those are the main devices for the moment that concerns me... which I am like 99% sure will be supported.

One features that I was wondering if the Nevo had (because of the WiFi) if it was possible to have some kind of tv schedule within the remote instead of using always the onscreen one of my cable provider... but this is just a minor detail.
Budget is not really a problem, but I will not spend more than 1k on those thats for sure and both have similar prices...

So well sorry for the long post but I just wanted to be clear enough! :)

Hi,

I have the Logitech Harmony 1000i on order here is Australia. I looked at the Nevo SL, but here at least they are in two very different price brackets! The 1000 can be picked up here for $480, while the Nevo is well over $1000 from what I have seen.

While I haven't yet received mine, I do feel the harmony is going to be better bang for your buck.

Nevo SL's much more customizable. It's a professional remote. Much more advanced than a Harmony, a simple consumer remote. Nevol SL isn't even available to consumers.

So it's handled in the same fashion as the RTI remotes? With the software and firmware updates only being handed out to authorized dealers?
