Hurray!
Received my new replacement MX-980 today. 8 days after shipping it off.
If anyone has anything bad to say about URC's return policy.
FORGET ABOUT IT.
Out of warranty, Cracked LCD screen!
Brand new remote $200.00.
Not Tough Luck, or Too Bad, Buy a New One.
We will send you a remote with a new one year warranty.
And I'm talking new. With replaceable activity buttons. (The one I returned was a earlier model without replaceable buttons)
Not some old leftover.
Thanks URC 

A few observations:
Battery is not a Roofer (sp?) Good.
Replaceable activity buttons?
Too many options for only two buttons. If their were more replaceable buttons it would be better, but unnecessary in my opinion.
Can see a lot of back light around the actual button.
Any spills look like they will go directly into the remote.
No time to wipe it off quick.
Tab for opening USB port eventually tears off (experience).
  
Overall rating a "10".
