Logitec makes incredibly bad programming code

Logitech Harmony 688 Universal Infrared Advanced Universal Remote (Black)
Logitech Harmony 688 Universal Infrared Advanced Universal Remote (Black)

Pros: It is a good remote, once you plow through the incredibly bad software interface

Cons: If you upgrade or change your system, good luck. You'll need to go back through the tedious non-brand specific programming process all over again. You cannot simply 'change' a TV or player in a setup. Worse, the software logs into logitec servers and logs out while you are doing your large and tedious task losing all of your work. Incredible.

Overall Review: For me, the kicker with these guys is that even the options available for each device remote you are trying to match is just a generalized list. One would think that you could at least gain some benefit from this crude logging into a server to do your setup. I hated it and the remote now just sits there waiting for an actual competent code writer to fix their code. Anyone?
