IMHO the most not-so-good thing about the Pronto is the limited amount of hard buttons, it's inconvenient to for example try to find a position on a tape or something when you need to keep peeking at the remote screen to find ffwd/rew/play/pause buttons.

My solution: five 4mm*4mm squares of cold laminating plastic (or whatever it's called in english, thick transparent plastic used for laminating ID cards etc, available in office stuff stores) glued (the plastic has sticker like glue and is easy to remove too) on a bottom row of five soft buttons on the screen.

Most of my screens have that bottom row of five buttons, usually transport controls which are in same positions in all devices (and panels, I usually duplicate the bottom strip to all panels of a device). The plastic is very transparent and doesn't change sensitivity of the screen so it doesn't matter if some screens have something other than the five similar buttons on the bottom row.

Very sensitive screens might be problematic as you'd hit some buttons when you're just trying to feel them but my screen has just perfect feeling here.

I like it! That should go into the archive of cool ideas for the Pronto/RC5000 (if there were such a thing).
