As promised I've been using the remote for the past few days and so far it's been ok. There are a few things which have spoilt the remote. For simplicity I've decided to do the good, bad & ugly.
Good
The remote is very easy to handle and sits snugly in the hand, its got a nice bottom heavy feel so it doesn't want to lurch forward while holding it. The bottom is covered in a felt like material and is soft to the touch. I like this as it doesn't slip out of your hand. The screen is easy to read and bright enough to view in the day time.
I like the auto lock feature of the screen too, my old H1 could have the screen pressed at any time, this resulted in putting your hand out to find it in the dark and pressing an option of the screen which was frustrating. The remote also seems a lot quicker to respond to my button and screen presses.
Bad
The front is again made from ultra shiny plastic which picks up finger prints and dust like crazy, resulting in a very grubby looking device after an evenings use. If like me who hates smudges etc you'll be cleaning the remote after every use. The dock is a bad design, in that with my old H1 I could just lean over in bed and pretty much plonk the remote onto its dock, due to the shape etc it just fell snugly back into place and started charging again. This is a lot more difficult if your half asleep and lean over. (it maybe something I get used to over time.)
The battery is built into the device. Unlike the H1 which was removable. I guess it means a tricky fix if the battery goes outside the warranty.
Ugly
While the screen is easy to read, the buttons I've found to be a little too small for my chubby man fingers. For the price you pay for the device (RRP was £150 I got it for £96) I'd have expected a larger screen with higher resolution etc. The overall feel is of solid build but again for such a premium device the materials are not, although slightly better than my old H1.
The IR transmitter is on the upper back part of the device and not at the front like most clickers are. This has resulted in me having to lift the remote ever so slightly into an awkward position that isn't indicative of using a remote. I don't think you could use this on a chair arm and just press buttons without lifting it and exposing the IR transmitter.
The USB connection on the remote and dock are tight and I nearly trashed it when trying to plug it in.
There is a lack of physical buttons on the remote leading to some creative thinking on the owners part if they want to utilise certain functions without having to rely on the touch screen. For example my Marantz UD7007 has its eject button set to the screen by default when you first set it up. However I don't want to sroll through options just to eject. The remote has a distinct lack of (E) button unlike my H1 so I had to use (DVR) button as an alternative.
Also while on the subject of buttons the layout is lacking, and having the essential buttons located at the top of the remote can be fiddly with one handed operation. Trying to reach them to press play or pause is a pain in the backside.
Software is a big horrid mess and I'm glad I don't have to use it more than a few times to get the remote set up.
Round up
The remote does what I need and has plenty of expandability later if needed. If you can live without a touch screen (I can but the wife can't as she would get confused by what is what) then other and cheaper Harmony remotes would suffice. Sadly Logitech seem to have the market for high end remotes to themselves and as such has lead to very lazy industrial design. I'll keep on with this remote as its the best solution for what I need, its just a shame the solution is badly designed.
