Your Harmony 1100 actually has a magic touch! This advanced universal remote turns on multiple devices, in the correct order, with just one touch!http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/remotes/universal_remotes/devices/4708&cl=us,en

The launch of the last Harmony was fairly low-key. It almost appeared "sneaky." It was quite a different matter for the Las Vegas introduction of the Harmony 1100. Featured features and selling points were that it's bigger than its predecessor. The major selling point is the big 3.5" QVGA touchscreen which is full-color, and customizable. This is in keeping with popular devices using this touchscreen technology as opposed to pushing buttons. You can adjust volume and change channels with a swipe of the finger.http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/logitechs-harmony-1100-remote-is-more-touchscreen-less-buttons/

The unit contains a rechargeable battery and RF capabilities. There is an easy-to-follow online guide for simplicity of setup and to learn the program. It is expected to ship to the US in April.http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/logitechs-harmony-1100-remote-is-more-touchscreen-less-buttons/

Compared to the Logitech Harmony 1000, Logitech's previous high-end touchscreen remote, the 1100 is definitely more polished. - Jason Chen, Gizmodo

Adding custom images to buttons and laying out things how you like is great, but if you're the kind of person who just wants your remote to be perfectly intuitive and work as you expect without even having to look at it, the 1100 is not for you. - Tim Stevens, Engadget

The Logitech Harmony 1100 is an excellent touch-screen universal remote that corrects most of the shortcomings and frustrations of its predecessor, but its high price will relegate it to high-end home theaters only. - David Carnoy, Cnet
