Hi.

A couple things that bugged me about it were the lack
of a mute button, and the volume controls could only
be programmed for one device! If you programmed them
for the TV vol on the TV or Video "page", you cannot
use those buttons for any other volumes, stereo etc.
Really does eat batteries. Mostly due to the backlight
which if I remember correctly can't be forced to stay off.\

later,

Carl
