Erland -- We really like our Harmony 900 and I do hope someone will pick
up the line, but I ecall that Philips wasn't able to find a suitable
buyer for it very high-end remote line and they dropped the whole thing.
This was sad for us who had really enjoyed our touch-screen remotes
from them.

I suspect that Logitech is aware of the move to using mobile devices as
remote controls - as was Philips - and sees the handwriting on the wall.
iPeng is MUCH better for controlling my Squeezebox than my Harmony 900,
and the DeRemote app runs my Denon AVR very well - again much better
than the Harmony.  

Increasingly there are comprehensive remote control programs for iOS -
and probably Android - that replace devices like the Harmony, and that
also do a lot of other things as well.

I wonder if the programmable hand-held remote may not be an obsolete
concept.
