I have a Logitech Harmony 550 and love it.  I have my Comcast Motorola 
DCT3412, Samsung 46" DLP HDTV, Panasonic DVD recorder, Onkyo receiver, 
and Myth box all programmed into it.  My Myth setup has lirc setup to 
emulate a Hauppage 350 (I'm pretty sure it's a 350) and is listening on  
an IR receiver that I got from irblaster.info for $20.

I think it works really well.  Can't speak for any other universal 
remotes, since this is my first one and first Logitech one, but I'm 
impressed so far.

Hope that helps!
