Default Harmony 510 vs 550

The 550 is more astatically pleasing and controls 15 things. I will only be controlling 3. The 510 controls 9 things and has more functions than the 550 like (Guided Online Setup, Onboard Intelligence, One-Touch Activity-Based Control). I know nothing about these. It appears that the 510 is better??? Could someone with experience enlighten me?
I have searched and see what people have but have not seen comparison/opinions on the two.

Go to Logitech and you can compare the two side by side and that should help you.

I own the 1000 and love it. It was expensive but when I discovered the hidden button that says "wife" and I touched it and my wife got up, walked to the refrigerator and got me a beer. That button alone made the remote worth every penny.

I checked out the comparison. It seams that the 510, you set it up using the computer. The 550 is done by pointing the old remote at the 550. ??
U got the Big Dog 1000. Nice
