It's only good for today, and yesterday's deal sold out quick. These remotes are great - I have one myself (a different model) and it works quite well, though I have to work out some kinks.

I've been looking at this line for a while. I've purchased many a so-called universal remote trying to get one to run everything, but there was always something critical I could not do (program my Panasonic DVR, change the inputs on my Amp/TV, etc). Plus none ever pass the "wife test" of being easy enough to use that I don't have to explain the button sequences. Have you done a review of this? I could not find one in a search, but the "Jason Seal of Approval" is probably enough for me to try it out, just need to find a sweet deal like the one you posted.

Damn! That's ridiculous - I can't believe Dell didn't get more of these stock to sell...

I have gone through multiple universal remotes and just recently got one of the Harmony 676 units and I love it. Progamming is simple and we have finally been able to put away all the other remotes (well except for the TiVo's since sometimes the Harmony is a little slow on sending commands to it, still trying new command sets for that problem).
