Awsome Remote??

I'm looking for a good universal remote to replace the individual ones I now use for my theater/stereo system componets. I have a Dish Network 4000 SAT, so I guess I need a remote that will transmit UHF commands as well as IR. I'm told the 4000 uses UHF only. Any suggestions? Prices? Thanks.

Irony and sarcasm are sometimes lost in type. Valiant effort though.

Be sure to really check that the Dish receiver takes only UHF ... I'm not sure what which Dish unit I have, but it takes both IR & UHF. I use the Marantz 2000 MkII remote. You have to teach it, but the time investment is minimal and very worthwhile.

I saw a writeup on the new Phillips Pronto with RF and color and it quoted a MSRP of $999, so if you're going to wait for it, be prepared for sticker shock.
