v,
i addressed your concerns in the return email to you a short while ago. please confirm the two files that were attached as the correct channel logos for 'thirteen' and 'ny1'. once confirmed, i'll create them for all the remotes.
on the 8 vs. 6 faves per screen issue, it's not an issue for me (although i upgraded to the one from a 720 which also had 6 per).
best,
r

Dear Randy,

First and foremost, thank you for such an amazing collection
of wonderful icons! i'm a newbie to remotes though i've
had a Universal for years (came with B&K). i just got
an 880 but sold it to upgrade to the Harmony ONE. i
understand from Logitech's FAQ that the pixel size for
the harmony one channel icon size is 75W x 44H. however,
from your excellent site, clicking on the harmony one
picture brought me to a large collection of icons but
they were all seemingly 150x88.

was it merely an incorrect link that brought me to an
incorrect area of your site? what is the true correct
size of channel icons for the Harmony One? is the FAQ
of Logitech correct?

i've already downloaded many icons before i discovered
that everything i've downloaded is 150x88 instead of the
correct 75x44. :( Now, i'm really curious what
is the proper size.

my new harmony one is arriving tomorrow.

additionally, being in the nyc area, i would like to ask
where one might be able to find:

1. NY1 icon: NY1 is a timewarner channel with all
local nyc news, handy sometimes to have.

2. "THIRTEEN" : our local nyc non-profit channel with
shows like Charlie Rose. while the true name is WNET,
i believe, it is more affectionately known and called
locally as "THIRTEEN". i cannot find that icon either.

thank you so much in advance for such an incredibly great
service you're providing to us hobbyists!

PS: as a general note, right after i placed my order
for the Harmony One, i discovered, sadly, that one of
my favorite functionalities is really no better, if not
even worse, on the Harmony One compared with the Harmony
880. that is, the favorite channels. the 880 has
TWO pages of 8 channels each page, so while you're on
page 1, you have instant, SINGLE button access to 8 stations.
the Harmony One has 3 pages of ONLY 6 channels each
page!! while the total number of channels is 24, which
is more than 16 (for the 880), obviously, it would require
more than one click to get to the station of your choice!


i don't know about others, but it would seem to me that
this "solution' of more channel pages is sort of like
one step forward, one step back!! am i the only one
who finds it annoying to only have 6 channels on one page?
additionally, the absence of hard buttons for the channels
is worrisome for me - i'm a big fan of tactile feedback,
i.e. no "touchscreen only" remotes for me (or, for that
matter, cell phones with only touch screen are also a
no go for me). i suppose that the Harmony One might
have tweaked the ergonomics just right so that this is
not an issue, i.e. they got the correct sensitivities
for the touch LCD, etc.

My Harmony One is arriving tomorrow, so i'll have actual
touch and feel experience tomorrow.
