I had one, sold it on eBay a few months ago. Basically it's a lot like the Sony touchscreen remotes. It can learn IR codes and assign to any LCD button you choose. Each LCD button has 3 possible labels to choose from. Drawback: you cannot change the label text, and there may not be a button text matching the function you want to assign.
For instance I used blank buttons for my power macros. It has no button labeled 'Guide', so I had to use a generic button without text for my DirecTV program guide button.
If you're the primary user and you can remember your buttons, it's a nice remote with a comfortable feel in your hand. Beware, it's not wife-friendly.
I also found it hard on batteries, had to replace them every 4-6 weeks.
I finally replaced my SUR-35 with a Harmony.
