Hi folks,

As we all know, the best thing about Christmas shopping is buying things
for
yourself in the middle of spending for others :-)

So, to that end, I'm treating myself to a learning remote.  However, my
question is, which and why?  The Pronto  seems to be the most popular
choice
but what does that have over the Marantz ?  I can stretch to the Marantz's
price (and therefore the 2MB Pronto) but do I need the extra memory both
provide, bearing in mind I'm going to want to control a TV, video, DVD
& amp
and X10 stuff in the future.  Are there any other viable units around?

If I only had the cash for the colour Pronto, these questions wouldn't
arise
:-)

Oh, and my amp and DVD are champagne so the Marantz would look nice, but
it's not a huge concern.

Any thoughts appreciated

G
