Rating: - This is a good product.
This is a great product. And, the technical support is excellent from Logitech. I've got one item, a video game of my son's, that doesn't quite work yet, but, I'm sure if I call them, they'll help me to integrate it.
Rating: - Overrated remote
I've had a few universal remotes in my day, and this is probably one of the most overhyped I have ever tried. I assume people have not used universal remotes before trying this one. It's the only explanation I could come up with. Yes, it's better than using 5 different remotes, but considerably worse than a lot of comparably priced universal remotes on the market.
I foolishly chose the 550 because it looked the least cheesy of all the Logitech products at the time (under $100 at least). ... Read More
Rating: - Very good but not intuitive to use

I have the 880 also and this is a great seond room inexpensive remote. A little hard to read the display bur you soon learn where things are and don't even need the display. Works well with all my hardware and love the ease of setup thru usb port on line.
Rating: - Cheapest decent Uni-Remote out there
You cannot beat the price of this thing. It is pretty easy to program as long as you don't like to customize things too much. It works with pretty much device you can think of, and lights up when it senses movement so you can see it in the dark and you don't have to fumble for the "Backlight" button. It's very thin and attractive, and suprisingly has withstandad countless spills by various liquids, and even two hot wax spills, yet it still looks great and works fine after cleaning it off.
