I just got an Home theater MX500 remote. Love it so far.
I would like to add an RF remote and have cloning/computer input capability. I am considering adding either an MX800, or MX600, and/or an IRcyclone unit. If I got the 800, I could program it via computer. Or get the 600 + ircyclone to allow computer manipulation. The MX800 sounds nice but I think I would also need the IR clone for the 500. If the 500 could transfer to the 800 or visa versa that would be great and I would not need IR clone. IF not, it seems I would need the IR clone for the 500 and the built in computer programming for the 800
Any suggestions or information???

I think you summed it up well. The 800 is a much more powerful/customizable remote, but no, there is no 800 to 500 compatibility except one button at a time. The 600 is an RF version of the 500 so you can clone one to the other and adding ir-clone will give you computer programming to both

The only problem cloning the mx-500 to the mx-600 is the power keys are switched between the models. The mx-600 has the ON command on the left, but the mx-500 has it on the right.
