Really nice touch screen. I've actually changed my mind to the Harmony One, which has a touch screen and a really nice button layout.

I can't tell for sure, as some on Ebay say Not backlit, but it "looks" like they are...

I see a link here to the 520 on Ebay for $29.99, and the 670's or 676's are $30 or so more -- being as my 670 seems to be acting up lately, is the 520 that much Lesser an item in terms of what it does?

Also, (on Amazon) I've seen where some people have taken off the plates on their 670 or 676 on the back, and cleaned the areas with a q-tip, and they seemed to work better after that. I was thinking of trying that as well, until I can find my cables to hook it up to my PC and update it, to see if that's the reason it's acting up a bit).

Ciruit City dropped their price on the Harmon One remotes to $189, which is about as low as I have seen it online anywhere.

I bought one last night and they still had about 100 left.

yea, Amazon is in the $193-195 range (New), and Ebay has some from $178 also. What I don't see and I love about my 670, is this one only looks like it is backlit in the main screen area, and not the other keys (all look black), unless you can tell me otherwise (?). I might try the Help button on my 670, or just try harder to find the cable to hook it up/update it. Thx!

The latest software release broke some functionality for the 670 ("Listen to Music" button doesn't work, for one). Luckily, there is a tech who monitors the Logitech Harmony forums and is able to log into your Harmony account and dump a workaround into your 670 settings (works for me).

cool - do you have a link by chance? (then again, I STILL need to find my USB cable to connect for any changes/updates/fixes! )

Thx.

Here is the thread at the Logitech forums. "EricHarmony" is the tech you should PM to get your 670 working properly.

THX -- I went to the link and found his listing but am not sure how to PM him (I think he's not logged ON now which may be the problem).

I'll try later though - thx again.

1. Make sure that you are logged in.

2. Click on his name.

3. Go to Contact > Send this user a private message. Give him your login name for your Harmony remote (the one you use to upload the remote settings) and an explanation for your problem. He will create a new ID for you to use temporarily to get the new settings.
