Great Technology but Awful Buttons

2004-09-13
This remote is great for managing all your AV equipment. The web setup makes it (relatively) easy and it's nice to have a backup online, especially if your configuration is very complex.

The downside? The buttons on this thing are ridiculous. They were made just for looks and are way too small to be practical. In addition, there's no space in between the buttons, so you always have to look down to find the one you want - which is a pain. Finally, the direction buttons (up, down, left, right) are on a tiny ring in the center - what's up with that?

If they would fix the poor ergonomics and follow the lead of good remote designs like Tivo and Sony, this remote would be near perfect. Just make the buttons a normal size!

Until then, you have to put up with the buttons if you want one remote to easily manage your equipment.

	Panasonic SC-HT920 5-Disc DVD Home Theater System Review: "The performance of the system is amazing and at the price I got it for, you CAN"T go wrong. The DVD player is quick when changing discs and quiet. There are also a lot of setup options."
