I use the 1Mb Pronto myself and would not suggest anything else ... Most
CCF files will fit into the (supposedly 380k) of free memory that a 1Mb
pronto has.

My own CCF has remotes for two TV's, VCR, DVD, LD, Cassette deck, Yamaha
DSP-A1, X10, Full setup remote for my projector (a huge beast) etc. and
still has 60% of memory free.

Even using channel logos doesn't nuke that much memory!
