I looked up the Producer-8 you mentioned and aparently it's discontinued.
That led me to AIO's newer remotes tho.  Amazon.com has what appears to
be their top of the line URC 9910 for $44 and it does RF.  Has anyone
used this remote?  Does anyone know if the RF capability can be used to
control X10 devices?  Just found a post that said it uses 430MHz, so I
guess it's no good for X10, still sound like a pretty great remote for
the price.
