Harmony 676 vs 880 What are the other advantages the 880 has over the 676 other than the color display ?

I agree! And using a remote mostly by feel of the buttons is very important feature, especially in the dark. I feel it is more important to day to day usage, than a fancy color lcd is to impress friends.:)

we have a sony sxrd and an hd dvr and our remote has no issues finding these. The only problem we have is sometimes it doesn't turn off the dvr.

Neither of the Logitech remotes use bluetooth. There is a device for $20 that converts the bluetooth to IR for the PS3.The review previously saying it won't work with PVR/DVR is also incorrect. The 676 and 880 are both programmed the same way, therefore any devices that work on the 880 will work on the 676. Not trying to be judgemental, but there is misinformation in your post.

Why not just give Logitech's customer service a call or email and ask specifically about your electronics model numbers?

The 670 does less than the 676, it doesn't have the Media button for storing FAV Channels. The 670 does have nicer more raised buttons and a better transport button layout (surrounds Nav joystick), Up/Dn Arrow keys instead of A/B, and is more attractive in my opinion. But, this is not outweighed by the 676's Median FAV CHs display function.

I just bought 2 of these remotes and they are excellient bought the first one and went back and got another which was the last one at the store since they were on clearance...updated software and firmware and they work with my, jvc receiver, onkyo receiver, tivo, directv hr20 dvr, directv hr10, olevia tv, samsung tv, lg dvd/vhs recorder, samsung dvd 1080p7 player, all components work flawlessly, also you can even teach the remote any functions your original remote has that is not found in the database, I highly recommend snapping these up before they are all gone, and the newer model is the 670 however i can't find anything the 670 does that the 676 does not....

Three big disadvantage the 880 has compared to the 676; needs a cradle to recharge proprietary lithium battery(which doesn't always make good contact leaving you with a dead remote, buttons are too close together and not raised, and BIG price difference.

Not sure if this has been mentioned...but...the 880 has some sort of motion sensor. Lay it down and it cuts the lights. Move it (as simple as off the coffee table) and the lights come on...SWEET.

The ea9800 is brighter and gets slightly better color. It also handles motion slightly better too if you are very particular. You can see reviews off both sets at "televisions.reviewed.com". The differences will be too subtle to distinguish in normal viewing however but it provides more bragging rights for vidoephilles like me.

Nope, that's the difference. Amazing anyone buys the TX-SR608. :) 1. VGA is largely obsolete; HDMI is now becoming standard on consumer PCs. 2. Sirius holds no interest to me. 3. THX is nice, but I don't have THX speakers which support the mandated 80hz crossovers (on all speakers) nor do I have a 7.1 setup (for the full THX effect)....it's just not worth it.

I just upgraded my 8600 plus to the 8620 today and have aleady noticed alot of little enhacements. The automatic document feeder is more reliable and handles larger loads. Duplex printing is much faster. The output tray is less sticky and doesn't jam as easily when you pull it out.

The iDisplay Pro is more advanced and has more features to calibrate monitors; Colormunki Display is a more simple version and is better for people who want a more simple (but with less control) calibrator.

No significant advantage to the 9200. I suggest avoiding Parrott BT car products. They are notoriously unreliable. I'm on my second unit and will not get another. Neither I have had lasted more than 2 months.

I went with the 8800 v th Epson v500. It has the LED lightbar - same. That's the major upgrade from the 8600 as far as I can tell. The deciding factor was poor software reviews for the Epson bundle. My profession is end-user software development. There's no way I want to deal with someone's poor UI or feature set or compatibility issues. I just want to scan my family photos. I own the full Photoshop CS so I can basically clean up anything. My guess is for the average user there should be no marked difference between the scratch and dust removal capabilities or the scan densities or lightbar output. Ease of use pays off every time you start the thing up. Hope this helps. I went with the 8800 v th Epson v500. It has the LED lightbar - same.

I use the Harmony 880 and I really like it. Every 6 month to a year, the charging station stops charging the remote, though.

had to edit my answer because it's cheaper than i thought: http://hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/__54822__OrangeRx_T_SIX_2_4GHz_DSM2_Compatible_6CH_Transmitter_w_10_Model_Memory_and_3_Pos_Switch_Mode_2_.html the dx6i is prob easier to program & there is lots of info online. Lots of folks use orange now, so tons of info on this too. I have a DX8 too & love it. This will take you a long way for 1/3 the cost.

My understanding of the differences is the 880 is suppose to be a little more powerful than the 790. It may be but I'm very satisfied with the 700 series. The remote is convenient but not necessarily needed. I do know this product does what it advertises it will do, so you should be happy with either one.

I love my 876 also. But the news I heard is that the 876 and other 1.3 units cannot send 3d content. I love onkyo but have seen some 1.4v process by onkyo and made by denon and pioneer.

Really the only difference are as such: The more expensive unit has 7.1 analog outputs, a RS-232 connection and like you stated, the extended warranty... I also think it might have another level of picture enhancement, but i am not sure about that.

Well, I decided! I went with the Harmony 890, with the IR and RF capablilities. After one month, I am still happy with my purchase. The thing isn't flawless, but it does do a nice job. Biggest gripe is that you have to unplug the little RF to IR converter to change anything on the remote.

I've had the Logitech Harmony 880 for over 8 months and it works flawlessly. I have not had the problem with the charger but my only complaint is that the upper buttons, list, A,B, C, etc.. Are a little small for my tastes but your milage may vary. I did have it set up by a professional installer so I can't comment on the ease of set up but it only took him 20 minutes or so to do it and that encompasses 8 pieces of equipment. I'd go with the 880 but check the amazon ratings first. They are always a pretty good source of information.

I have this TV and the TOC is there; it's just very subtle on the 630. I compared it to the 850 and the difference is that the frame of the 630 blocks most of the light that passes through from the back, keeping the red tinting faint. The 850's frame has a lip where the plastic is much thinner (and clear) so the light passes through from the back much easier and the red shows up more vividly. Take a flashlight and shine it through the sides of the 630 frame around the screen and you'll see the red tint.

I went with the 880 for the same reasons as PitchBlk with the addition of the following:The 880 has a wider angle lens than the 890 - 28mm vs 37mm on the 890 - You do not need to back up so far for a family shot with the 880.The 880's digic 4 improves face detection - now will autofocus on a profile. The auto focus is servo controlled - focus is faster and keeps working between half click and image capture. The 880's movie mode uses better compression with same quality. The only things I like better about the 890 is 5X zoom and the view finder (the reason for the smaller screen).

There may be more differences, but for me the most important difference was that the RX-V677 has wifi which enables Airplay and Spotify streaming. Otherwise you have to buy a wifi adapter for the 675.
