501 and 508 remotes, any difference?

[johntoto11]

Would anyone know if there is any difference between the 501PVR ,and the 508PVR remotes? I need an xtra remote for my 501 and was thinking since the 508 comes with 2 remotes, someone might have one I could get A good deal on. johntoto11@hotmail.com

don't take this as gospel, but they should work, if not be identical. I mean, I can use my 4900 control to control my 501. :) That was fun the first day we got the 501. . . GAH! NO! I don't WANT to watch lifetime!

I know that the 721 has a few extra buttons for the PIP and interactive fucntions but I believe the 501 and 508 remotes are the same.
