Totally agree with that. I have used my iPad and iPod Touch as a remote for a while before I bought a Harmony One +. Although the iThinges had nice user interfaces and capabilities, I couldnt get around the tactile feel one gets from a hardware remote. There were plenty of occasions where I pressed the wrong buttons on the iThings. Or even pressed buttons by accident. That was the main reason for me to switch to a hardware remote. Once again Logitech shows that it has absolutely no vision. Sure that UE will have a very short life at Logitech as well. Logitech is only great at killing great products. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Pascal Hibon's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7969 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97925
