This next paragraph was written by my dearest on his facebook page yesterday. Unfortunately, I gotta admit that every single word of that paragraph is truth. Read for yourself on how we moved past these minor frustrations and slipped into the next phase…Harmony! I did get his permission to air this bit of truth as I thought it might help others in our same situation.
I bought a Harmony 900 universal remote and my wife can finally turn on the TV! This is great; I don’t have to have 4 friggin’ remotes anymore! Every time Debbie wanted to watch the TV instead of the Blu-Ray, she would call technical support, i.e. ME! But now, she just presses “Watch TV” and “voila” it does all the rest. I’m sorry Santa, but this Christmas gift is not going back under the tree!
My comment after that – I have never had a relationship with a remote quite like I have with this new one. Me over here singing the praises of this very sweet, kind and user friendly thing called a remote.
Why, I even overheard hubby exclaim the other night “This thing is SMART!”
It looks so sleek sitting there in the charging case. How pretty is this opposed to the 4 remotes that used to adorn the end table. I used to shove some of them into the top drawer, but not anymore baby!
And you don’t have to worry, It won’t bite, promise!
Just pick it up like so. Once moved from its charging cradle it comes “alive”. This is the part where I get excited, it knows I’m on the other end ready to do something.
How cool is this? All I have to do it touch the screen and tell it what I want to do and it takes care of the rest. It even turns on the surround sound! It’s amazing that I don’t have to use two different remotes at this point and try to remember what I’m doing. I’m a basket case when it involves more than one remote.
It seems all I’m interested in these days is the Blu-Ray/Pandora Christmas Music!
I’ve been listening to Christmas Blues today, such a treat. I’m still amazed that I don’t have to ask hubby how to turn on the TV if I want to switch between Pandora and the tube.
The name Harmony 900 can only mean one thing “Harmony is truly in the house.” Amen.
I feel much better now.
Blessings – Debbie
I ‘feel ya” girlfriend! It truly is the B.E.S.T remote EVER!!
Love, love, love mine!!! too funny that we both have Harmony~
