...is a piece of shite. I've had it since the summer, and I hate the thing more and more every day. The channel "clicker" is the most annoying thing in the world, and I always accidentally hit it just moving around or setting it on the couch or something. When my wife is lying next to me trying to sleep I have to muffle the damn thing so it doesn't wake her up because of the god awful clicking noise it makes. And the layout is retarded. WHY DID THEY CHANGE IT????

I don't like the record is just under the guide. I always accidently hit the record button.

Looks like a cheap, cordless phone.

I've had it for over a year and love it.

I hated the old remote, big long bulky POS that got dirty and keys wore out so fast.

I have a love/hate relationship with it.

It's nice that I can change the channel even when I'm outside (I have my signal on a wireless splitter). However, it's a pain in the arse that it won't change inputs on my TV. If I want to switch the the FireTV I have to find the other remote or get up and switch it.

Ummmm, Logitech universal remote. One remote turns on everything and dims my lights with one button. It's touchscreen has a slide to open function like an iPhone so no accidental hitting of buttons.

Sorry if this has been mentioned already. I didn't read 3 pages of this shite.
