The WAF for the MX-700 is one of the main reaons I have it. The ability to program macros on the PC is fabulous. s far as acttivity based remotes, the 700 qualifies with the use of macros. I also have a device page set up (SWICH) that provides a single button (macro again) to go from one thing to another (watching DVD to watching satellite. All of the functions (TV Vid, Rcvr audio, DVD off, etc) turn on, off & switch. MAJOR WAF points here.

Also, the price fo rthe Mopen box MX-700 lines up with the Harmony prie you mentioned.

I hope this doesn't seem like I'm hitting you over the head with this thing - it's just that good.
