The retail price of $499 just seems crazy. I guess I was just expecting it to be closer to the price of the mx-1000. The cost of making the mx-1000 has be more than the mx-700. I'm just guessing there was a lot more research and development into the mx-700. Think I will just hold on to my mx-500 for now.

It's a Rare Bird indeed, hoo will pay list price on this website. HTM has to show list price on their sales because they could never undercut a dealer. Bluedo is already $40 off list and I suspect you'll see others drop as well, especially for savy remote users that do not need custom programing.

You mean I could get it cheaper than the list price? I wonder if I could have paid less than the sticker price for my car? I was just saying that a list of $499 just seemed really high. Im sure we will see it for around $350 very soon which is still way over priced for a mx-500 that lets you that you can program from your pc. I got my mx-500 for $110 and paying an extra $300 for the pc interface and some other features just seemed a little steep. The cheap one-for-all and the jp1 cable with the mx-500 will have to work for now.
just my 2 cents:)

Yep, I was jumping to get one but not at $450+-.
I think color Pronto's are cheaper with all the technology in them.

Don't forget those 3-packs only come with one cable. HomeTheaterMaster does give you information on how to make your own, though, on their website.
