Specially designed for the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment console from Microsoft, the newest Logitech Harmony remote joins what has become the most popular brand of advanced universal remotes in the U.S. marketplace. With the Harmony remote, there´s no need to juggle remote controls or press a dozen buttons to set up a TV, home-theater receiver, and Xbox 360 for gaming. When people push one button on the Harmony remote, the Xbox 360 and all of the appropriate electronics components are set to the required state for game play. Special console-specific buttons on the Harmony remote make it easy to navigate the Xbox 360 interface. The remote´s white finish, chrome accents, cool green backlighting and ultra-slim design complement the understated but sophisticated design of the Xbox 360."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/9705.jpg" /> <br /><br />Now this I didn't expect! I figured someone would eventually release a remote control that would be compatible with the Xbox 360, but Logitech has developed a remote that leverages all of the multimedia functionality of the Xbox 360 <i>and</i> controls all of your other Home Theather components. The Smart State feature ensures that all of your components are in the correct on or off position, and the interactive display keeps you apprised of what's going on at all times. I've got to get one of these!
