The menu items on the empeg player respond to the number keys as well as the >>| |<< keys. So if you want to turn off the player, instead of "*, >>, >>, >>, >>, Dnpp", you can do "*, 5, Dnpp". Three keystrokes instead of six. The number may change depending on which software release you're running, since the menu layout occasionally changes slightly.
I was so surprised when I saw this pointed out (elsewhere on the BBS).
(Yes, we know that you can hold the top button to turn off the unit. I'm just talking about when you want to use the remote- for instance if the player is out of your immediate reach.)
