my 'list' button is dying, i have to REALLY press down on it 4 or 5 times for it to work. i've otherwise been completely happy with it.

so, i was just going to replace it, but now i'm thinking of stepping up to the 880. and then, i was thinking, "okay, is logitech really the 880 pound gorilla of remotes?" (get it? i made a joke there). i know some people are holding out for the ar xsight, and the urc-r50 looks interesting. of course, i know there's some really expensive phillips, marantz, etc. remotes out there, but i think that's overkill for me (at least financially).

anyways, is there any reason to look beyond logitech? other than rgby soft vs rgby hard buttons, and maybe better icons, they're all gonna function about the same, right?

thx!

(i just had a thought. i could re-map that button and take my time researching. i'm so smart!)
