Hey all--

I know this has been asked a million times, but I'm looking for input on what remote should replace my dead Harmony 880. I have several options to choose from, all at $100 give or take. Here's the rundown:

Harmony 880 (used, but excellent condition)
URC MX-850 (open box)
Pronto TSU3500 (open box)

They are all about the same. My 880 did more or less everything I wanted it to do, and it would be simple to program another one. What are your opinions on the other two? I would love to have RF capability because my girlfriend gets frustrated having to point the remote at the equipment "forever". How easy are the others to program? I'm no professional, but I am somewhat tech-savvy. I'm looking for a remote that will control my plasma, Marantz 8001, Xbox 360, PS3 (with IR dongle), Motorola Comcast HD box, and maybe even a Wii. I know that's not really a tall order. Opinions?

Bryan
