Logitech adds MyHarmony.com PC setup to 600, 650 and 700 model remotes
Logitech's offered its MyHarmony.com setup software for the low-end Harmony 300 remote since it launched last year, but now users of its slightly higher end 600, 650 and 700 series remotes can get in on the drag-and-drop USB-connected programming action (demo video after the break) too. There's also videos and customization of buttons to make setup even easier. If you're a Harmony user (and it looks like many of you are) it's probably worth checking out to see if you can straighten out any kinks in your universal remote setup.
Logitech Harmony 300 eschews LCD screen for universal affordability (video)
Logitech's Harmony remotes have a well earned reputation that treads the fine line between overkill and power user necessity, and while the 600 series brought the entry price down below the $100 mark, this latest Harmony 300 set is aiming to limbo even lower. Priced at $49.99 in the USA and £29.99 in the UK, the 300 touts a supposedly effortless web-based setup -- via a USB hookup to your nearest computer -- and compatibility with more than 225,000 devices from more than 5,000 brands. Of course, the lower price comes with some sacrifices, namely the removal of the LCD screen found in the higher models, and the limitation of controlling a maximum of four devices. If neither bothers you too much, expect this universal remote to land in your lap some time in early April. Video after the break.
