Toggle, If/else are more advanced commands and not needed
to get the remote working properly for your system. You
can add those commands later to refine the remote. The
Mx-900 doesn't have any of those commands and it is a
very functional remote so don't let those functions concern
you at first.
There are internet dealers that will sell the software
with the remote. If you really get stuck there are services
that will program it for you. Just like carpentry, some
people can do fine work themselves, others start a project
and realize they are over their head before they call
a carpenter, and of course you have the guy that has no
desire to do the work himself and calls a professional
from the start. It is not as easy as the Harmony but
once you understand it you'll be fine and if you have
trouble there are options. So, it is not like you are
stuck with a non-functioning remote if you can't program
it or do not want to spend the time learning to program.

I really now what you mean by ''Just like carpentry, some people can do fine work themselves, others start a project and realize they are over their head before they call a carpenter'' I see a lot of peoples call us to fix a disaster they made in their house. Those people usually got no love or passion for what they doing and others do just great. I got the passion for HT as a matter of a fact I'm addicted... And as for the poster who said ''URC will not allow the software to be sold with the remotes or given to clients'' I know some authorized dealers will sell the software with the remote I found some. I was talking about the toggle. if/else statements but I meant all those statements use by the remote. (jump to, alias, delay, etc.)
I'm willing to spend time learning that remote but has I said I'm no programmer and I can't use a proffessional installer from where I from, so if I do buy an MX-980 I got to program it myself.
thanks
Gui.
