Well I purchased the URC-8090 and I agree with Brad's 95% assesment. I have been unable to get the control my DVD players menus (Pioneer DV-414).
I have ordered the "advanced codes" through
http://www.allforone.com/, but have not recieved a reply (I submitted on 4/2/99 so I'm giving them the Easter holiday).
I paid $69.95 by ordering through
www.smarthome.com, which has been running a $0.00 shipping and handling promotion for Internet orders.
I would like to say that it sure is cool not having to point the remote at the equipment anymore.
