How do you get around the firmware update/brightness button issue? Is
there a sequence to code on the Harmony to send the right signal?

Personally I think it sucks and is pathetic that you cannot purchase a

Could you have someone here close to you where Logitech ships get you
one and then ship it to you. It would add a bit of shipping but not
that much I would think and it would be a lot less than a harmony. A
Harmony is nice though, I have a 720 I like it a lot.

Buttons are the same...the old one's just smaller and feels cheaper.
Purely a matter of aesthetics.

Indeed, it's a thing of beauty. Very worthwhile upgrade, in my opinion.
