I figure the Philips Pronto from Richer Sounds for £150-00 looks the biz.

Anyone have any experience with this or others either good or bad?

Another vote for the Pronto!

Get the B&W version for approx £200 or the new colour for £700

100% programmable - e.g. graphics for channel logos linked to macros to select Sky/channel 1,0,1 the select the Amp for diigbox sound, dim the lights and start the video recorder - all with one finger push (if you do that everyday)

See http://www.letsautomate.com/ for prices or http://www.remotecentral.com/ for people as obsessed with remote controls as we are about talking ****e all day

Pronto is the Mutts Nutts if you have the time to program it, if not it looks nice and makes people go wow when they visit. Batteries last a long time as well even with heavy use of the backlight.
