It has been my experience, that when people either claim something is, or defend their purchase with the "best bang for buck" statement, it is an admission of their awareness that what they have isn't the best.

To be less confusing... Harmony owners will not openly say that something other then what they own is better. Even if it is common knowlege that it is. So statements like "Best buck for buck" are used to justify their ownership. Not to single out Harmony owners though. This is the same with any product, remotes, displays, any A/V equipment.

If the cost isn't a factor then buy the Nevo. The Harmony IMO does not compare. I can't comment on availability or programming issues.

Sorry I can't help further.
