Thanks guys, this will be a big purchase for me so in January (hopefully I will have it by then) I will post a review.

I would like to see on the display only what I need, on/offs for VCR/TV/CABLE/DVD/Xbox,
play buttons and inpurt change, close caption, mute that all I usually need. Also I hope they kept the group function from the RC9800i, Its nice to press/touch one button and have the input changed and device on at the same time. Also the EPG would nice.

I have to be honest, I never thought a remote would be so expensive.
