I like it too..
tip:
I set up two of the hard buttons (the bottom most pair) to do fastforward and Stop/play. That lets me skip through commercials by feel.

I do not have a One but I do have the older 880 and it is a power house, I have replaced 9 remots with mine LOL and I have all my lighting controled threw it as well. I like the looks I get when some one comes over for the first time and I hit one button and everything turns on, the movie screen drops and then the lights dim to scene one. I push play and the room darkens, they need to pee and I pause the movie and the pot lights come ou just enought to light the way as to not trip. I have bee thinking about replacing mine with a one but I really have no need.
Once you get it dialed in it is great.

New from Harmony, I may have to get one as a 2nd bedroom remote. Harmony 300

Looks like Harmony is moving away from the hour glass shape that had for so many years. The hard buttons on these new ones are much better than the soft, gel like ones from before.

That's unfortunate. I really like the peanuts in terms of ergonomics.

That new 300 doesn't have a screen?
I have an older 520 and an 880, happy with both. I prefer the older shape and button layout on the 520 however, but the 880 isn't bad.

I have the 1100 and I really like it. The screen provides multiple pages of 9 icons plus 4 static ones on the left and 4 on the right. I have access to every option for my TV, and Receiver. If my receiver provided an on-screen display for everything, then I would be in universal remote heaven.

I have an 880...I almost love it. The #1 thing I hate about it, is the recharge cradle. I have to futz with it forever to get the remote rested in there just right for it to charge. Huge pain in the butt. That and it doesn't control my PS3. Since I'm getting all new gear, perhaps a new remote with that nifty PS3 adapter would be a good idea as well.

Your right! 880 sucked charging... 890 was better (no longer available) 900 is perfect charging and ergos (but sucks for RF!) 1100, works perfect charging, has lots of new goodies, RF okay... but 2 handed, not bad but different
