Shown on this last page is the PC/MAC software page that provides some additional flexibility with what you can do with the Harmony One.

For instance, you can change remotes or add another Harmony One Remote, plus take advantage of additional functions, such as the appearance of the menu displays, create a slideshow, or change the glow time and other convenience feature, that are explained in the software.

Final Take

The Harmony One Software Package and Remote provides the user very flexible, easy-to-use, cotnrol over almost all functions of a home theater system. In addition, the ergonomic design of the remote control makes it very comfortable when in your hand. The inclusion of both a Touchscreen menu system and buttons give the remote extensive control capabilities while retaining a small physical profile.

The thing I liked the best, is the way you setup and update the remote. The software package that is included enables timely database updates via an easy-to-use interface. Also, all the information about your specific remote is stored in the software and can be updated and re-downloaded to the Harmony One at any time, via a USB connection.

The only complaints I have about the Harmony One system are minor: The icons and text on the color touchscreen may be small to see for some users, Blu-ray and HD-DVD player device listing need to be separated from DVD device listing, and the touchscreen can be tricky to use if you have large fingertips.

If you are frustrated with your remote control collection or your current universal remote control, I would definitely check the Harmony One as a possible solution that will definitely make using your home theater or audio system a lot more fun to use.

I give the Harmony One Advanced Universal Remote Control a strong 4.5 out of 5 Stars.
