The RC2000 is OLD technology. The best remote ever made
is the Philips Pronto (and there is a Marantz-branded version too,
Philips owns Marantz). I have both, and there is no comparison.

Pronto is fully programmable through a PC, you can make custom
screens for it, and fully customize it to your needs. RC2000 pales
in comparison. You need to be a geek to program the Pronto, but you
can make it simple to use, so you don't need to be a geek to use it.
Check it out, you'll never go back to the RC2000.
