Hi,
How do you get the clock to display on the remote? I have found it in the setup menu (on the remote holding down main) , but no where else. I would like to have it on all the time like a pronto.

On a side note I have read of others having problem with buttons freezing the remote. I to was having this problem. In trying different things, I found the preference to activate sound when buttons are pushed (I wanted this to work anyway) after activating this I have had no more problems. Perhaps this was just luck, anyway for those with problems it's worth a try.

Create a new button where you want the time to display. Check out the options on the right, by default TEXT will be set to Normal. Change it to Time and viola! You can also display the date or the page number (page number within the device, which also id automatically displayed on a Pronto).

A COOL trick is to create a small transparent .GIF image, that is button sized (Wide but not very tall, import that as the image for the button.

The clock will then show up without the ugly grey background which is default for a general button.

I actually made the button an animated gif of a clock with legs moving back and forth :)
