Really liked my Pronto (macros especially), but just lost the touch screen (2nd one that has died on me), so I was wondering what to do next. I tried to repair it, but I guess its too far gone. Not sure it makes much sense to get another as it seems it is just a matter of time before the touch screen dies.

So what now? Is there anything out there that is similar to the old Pronto for a decent price? I dont need a bunch of bells and whistles, just something that my kids and wife can use with an engineering degree. Some older model maybe, or something I can get used?

thanks

What do you consider a decent price?

Not sure, I think I paid $60 for my last Pronto NG. I'd be willing to spend more, but not too much over $100.

Edit...Guess I could explain what I'm looking for a little clearer.

1) Price --I'm cheap, ended up paying about $100 for (2) TSU3000's, so I'm looking to spend < $100

2) Components- I have a mix of older and newer stuff, newer Onkyo reciever, Uverse remote, Samsung plasma, old panasonic DVD player, old vcretc

3) Utility- I assume it will have to be a learning remote, since I was unable to find codes for some of the companents when programming my Pronto. I also liked being able to push a single button to turn on my TV, cable box, receiver, select sound output (also receiver), select source (also receiver) all at once. So macros are a must too.

4) I did like having the touch screen and the ability to customize it, however this is not a deal breaker and a remote with just buttons or a small un-cutomizable touch screen will work too.

thanks
