That's a pretty ghetto old school looking remote.

Bluetooth alone does not make a Harmony killer.

The Logitech adapter does not use a USB port either.

This will force Harmony to cut the price on the adaptor. Like it really costs all that much to make?

Think about it ? Good $20 sony remote, Better $49 Interlink, Best $60 Logitech adapter, + $99 for remote?

What do you think is going to sell during xmas? Hell, the only problem is that it didn't come out before logitechs alternative so we all bought the better option for lack of a cheaper alternative.

They're talking about the one that converts the IR signal into a Bluetooth signal. It's pretty neat. I was going to get one for a while.

I do not think this will force them to cut the price on the adaptor.Also I know me personally If I was going to buy a remote I would go the harmony way instead of this one.

Nothing kills the Harmony One! I paid 50 bucks for an IR4PS3 and it was completely worth it so that I can use my Harmony One for everything. I'd take the One over the H 1000 or H 1100 any day.

We are enthusiasts which is why we are on here, we are NOT the avg joe. I wouldn't buy this either, but somebody buying a ps3 now for $299 isn't going to spend another 1/4 on just the remote unless they have some scratch to burn.

I would still tell the average joe to get a harmony one if they asked me.

REMOTE $60.10

Ps3 adaptor 59.99 making it $120.00 for the remote that I would suggest to anynody here.Instead of a $50.00 random remote.

Actually my math was wrong, 1/3 of the price even with your solution. Which one do you think will be the stocking stuffer?
