Hey,

What's the difference between the Marantz version and the Philips Pronto? Color? and Price?

Also, where can I get the Philips for $299 or less? thanks.....a place where I can order "online", not one of these call me to order websites...

thanks,

From everything posted so far, it appears that the Philips and Marantz remotes are the same with the exception of color. I also understand that the Marantz will come with the charging station while the Plilips is offered as an option. the only price I have seen for the Marantz is $549. Your best bet for up to date info would be to contact a home theater dealer either online or in your local area

Just to clarify, by color, John is referring to the color of the case not a color lcd touchscreen.

Joe,

I have just returned from the CES show and Marantz had no display (nor discussion) of the RC5000. This would means to me that it is further off than some may have expected. As to color, my understanding is that it will be a "light bronzy or silver" color. This remains to be seen in actual production units, when they occur. As to function, I would suspect it to be identical to the Pronto.
