Had been using a Harmony One, nice remote but i need to replace it or get something else.
Anyone that can recommend something better then the Harmony One? Was thinking of trying the Peel or another iOS remote solution since i have both an iPhone and iPad.
Question about
Can someone recommend a great universal remote?
Harmony is the best if you want to control your receiver too. The iOS option doesn't do as much as Harmony.

2nd the Harmony - One button to completely configure a set of devices. I really had doubts on using the "Activities" part of the harmony system, but it is what makes the Harmony series really work. You use the Harmony SW to add your devices, then configure the activities you want to do, Watch TV, Play Xbox, Listen to Music... One button turns on or off devices and selects any necessary inputs on them to make it happen. BTW I recommend a 15 device remote over a 5, but your needs and tech may allow it. Look for sales :)

Honestly, I have found nothing I cannot configure my Harmony One to do. (Except RF obviously). I have macros and special configs working with no problems. My current set up includes AV receiver, AppleTV, Mac Mini, DirecTV HD DVR, BluRay, etc.
I'm curious as to what it is that the Harmony One does not do for you.
