cannot rate them,, but brief description is OK

------ all of these remotes are touch screen remotes with colour displays, all are PC programmable
1) screen is oriented differently and has the appearance of a game controller or something. it also has some simple variables, and if you decide to go with the RF base each IR port is addressable
2) this is tablet form with a large screen, it has a few buttons but most are mostly useless, it is also a web browser and has an electronic program guide
3)this is Marantz's version of the ProntoPro NG, has less buttons and is usually more expensive
4) old technology replaced by the 9500 same form factor but that is all, less memory, less screen colours.....
5) The last and best of the Pronto line. Many hard buttons (i think the most out of all) large following in the Pronto forum

Well I am not all that experienced,

But I have used and programmed the MX3000, which I did like, and found it to be a bit easier to prog than the Pronto TSU6000.

The pronto TSU6000 I found more difficult to navigate thru various functions, was less user friendly. But this may have been prog. poorly not sure.
