Looks like they got rid of the "help" button. What happens now when the remote gets confused about the state of the devices, or one of the devices misses a command?
This is the biggest issue that I see. I use the Help quite frequently - my audio receiver is fickle at times. While it's pretty easy for me to troubleshoot what went wrong in the process asking my wife or kids to do the same thing will only lead to frustration.

Sounds like trouble.

@wobbl Considering you can't switch between activities, there really isn't much need for the help button.

A universal remote worth buying doesn't get confused and doesn't miss commands.
