Alternatively, you could just go with an el-cheapo universal remote.  I've
got a One-for-All URC-8820 that works perfectly with my serial port IR
receiver.  Looks good, and has all the buttons I need to drive my Myth
system.

TBH, I've never really understood the attraction to these massive mini-PDAs
disguised as remote controls.  I mean, for the price of a Harmony, you could
buy another PVR-150!  But, meh, to each his/her own. :)

Brett.
