Review:

Philips Prestigo 15-Device Universal Remote is definitely the way to go to control a bunch of A/V components in one room. It is very simple to setup and works well with TiVo HD DVRs with setting one custom button. You choose your A/V component type after that the brand and the remote just works. The recharging cradle is also excellent.

Philips Prestigo 15-Device Universal Remote controls up to 15 devices; 15 activities; color screen; cable and satellite channel logos; without the requirement of PC. However a poorly implemented scroll-wheel control sabotages it. Its Rotary wheel under performs and it has odd button layout. In remote most keys are too close together and it is a bit heavy. It has no rechargeable battery option; rather expensive versus rival models.
