Personally, I found the Pronto software to have an easier learning curve than the 810's software. For instance, the Squeeze Box is located in an area I found odd. There's no way to search for this manufacturer (that I know of, anyway), and learning the buttons on your own or importing them doesn't work. If you add a new device and go to program the device, the software doesn't automatically select the new device for you. Why not? I could go on and on, but I hear our baby getting up.
