I've fucking had it with my cable box's "learning remote" - a Checkmate IV (RT-U49C-15+) 
I have programmed the TV, my DVD/BluRay player, and the cable box will very little difficulty whatsoever - but after trying codes all afternoon, as well as the manual scan - the closest I can get to programming my Technics AX-GA290 A/V Receiver, is power on/off only (no volume or presets) ... but it programs it onto the TV button, thus losing all of the TV functions!!
I was looking on eBay pricing Harmony 300 or Harmony 800 units, when I saw the Logitech Harmony LINK unit .... which allows you control of up to 8 devices, and full TV listings - via your iPad!!
I am wondering if anybody here has any first hand experience with this device? Does it do what they claim, and is it worth laying out the cash on it, or should I just get a Harmony 300/800?
Thanx!
