I'm thinking that we're about to reach critical remote control mass in our living room: PS3, PS2, TV, CD player, Bluray/DVD player (different region code than the PS3), digital TV settop box, A/V receiver. On the whole I don't mind juggling several remotes, but this is getting ridiculous... so I'm thinking of getting an All-in-one RC.
Any experiences and tips? I'm hearing lots of things, both good and bad, about Logitech's Harmony series. I wouldn't want to buy anything without knowing that it'll be a distinct improvement on the current situation.
P.S.: I know that the PS3 remote control works with Bluetooth rather than with IR. From what I've seen the PS3 add-on to the Harmony is pretty pricey, so all things considered I don't think I'd necessarily need to get rid of all of my remote controls.

A friend of mine is big into this stuff. He had a remote for a couple years now that controls his receiver, TV, PS3, computer, ect ect all the way to the light dimmer. I'll ask him and see what he recommends.

Check out the selection on Bestbuy dot com, I got one there that is digital, has a backlit LCD, and is super fancy. Very easy to use too, and it has touch sliders for light and volume control. It's like $130, but if you tell the wife it vibrates, she'll let you in a heartbeat.
