This thing rocks!!!
This new remote just came out, and a bit pricey at $999.99, but it appears far better than the color pronto for the same price. The best part is the expanded interface, better hard buttons, and above all else, it is RF and IR!!! An RF remote of this caliber is LOOOOOONG overdue. I think it is a little much now, but very soon, oh yes, very sooooooooon under-taker, we shall have our reveeeeeeeennnnnngggggeeee against the Ultimate Warriorrrrrrr!!!!!!
***Update***
Two other things,
1. It imports existing CCF files, so Pronto stuff will work
2. I found it for $750 at About Gizmos.com |

| A fully customizable RF remote control, no ugly IR Repeaters cluttering up your units... :D___ I wouldn't pay more than $300 for this, but $750 is probably a fair price for now. |

| I predict a $750 deduction in Alex's bank account. But seriously, won't you need 2? Also you'll probably want to purchase the optional surgery option to have it grafted to your forearm. |

Maybe moneybags Nick will buy one.
I will buy one when it drops to $400, cause I will need at least 2, seriously. |

|
| To get Nick to buy you one, all you have to do is tell him that the AboutGizmos.com runs a 2nd business that steals organs from hobos -- he'll do it in a heartbeat. |

|
| Jerry, just the thought of hobos not being able to play music on their lovely organs will prevent me from informing Nick of this grotesque company's remote. |

| I think Alex could get behind stealing organs from organ grinders though. I mean seriously...that's just a waste. |

| Oddly enough, One of Marc & I's classic AWP "villains" was a beggar named "The Organ Grinder." Our heroes, The Benchwarmers, came upon this gentle man and his dancing monkey on a street corner. "The Organ Grinder" introduced himself (a big mistake) and the heroes misunderstood the true meaning of his name. To save the dancing monkey from being ground into a paste, the BWs beat the %&#&$ out of him and disposed of his "organ grinder." |
