Number 7: The Harmony One remote control. I like mine so much, I named it Mortee, an anagram of remote. This one doesn't just claim to be a universal remote, it really actually will control all your electronics. Even if you have a really old tuner (like I do) you hook it up to your computer and it will find the info it needs to control it, as long as the electronics had a remote to begin with. OK, we can't turn on the old black XBox with it because of that, but the Harmony One will set up the TV input so all we have to do is turn on the XBox. Maybe it is time to upgrade to the 360? I like that I can make up my own commands, like "watch a dvd with surround sound" and I don't have to change settings on anything. I just push the one button on the screen. If I change my mind and want to listen to the radio...push one button and it does all the work. I do have to lift a finger, but only one finger.
