Why touchscreen out of interest ?

My pronto is now consigned to the bin in favour of a .....

Logitech Harmony ....

just fantastic - just works.

Wife loves it, baby sitter loves it, nanny loves it,  I love it.

The built in help and actions are how remotes should work.

Further to configure the harmony its the work of 20 mins..... a pronto can
take weeks and as soon as you change your dvd player the nightmare begins
again.

It took 2 mins to change the telly on my harmony remote.
