Thanks, but my ceiling fan and the light on it work by remote only. I was just pointing out a benefit of the Harmony remotes.

Program it to control your neighbor's blinds and let the games begin.

We did that once to a buddy in the neighborhood! We programmed his TV and kept changing his channel to Bravo during the game!!!

well the ceiling fans only can be accessed by the RF remotes, slightly pricier. since i had no glass doors, and everything was going to be line of site, i opted for the HarmonyOne - which is IR only. controls the TV, DVR, Receiver, XB360 and PS3. i only have one other remote for my fanbox that i dont mind. fuck the haters yo.

Agreed! You'll have to post pics or e-mail me some of your home set-up since I couldn't be there for the unveiling. Sounds good from what I've read about it.

I did that when I lived in Coral Springs, FL. I'd sit out on my patio and flip through the channels for her. We had the "hurricane-proof" sliding glass doors so I couldn't hear her flipping out, which I think made it even more funny. She laid into that poor TV set a few times, would throw her arms up in the air, smash on her remote buttons, take the batteries out.... it was hilarious.

You know that you can get RF adapters, right?
