Harmony's $150 Smart Keyboard remote comes to living rooms this month

Might not be too bad.

Too bad it does not have device buttons.

On my main TV I ha a HDMI Switcher, a DISH Hopper, a DIRECTV HR 24, a Apple TV, a Roku 3 and a WDTV Live. It looks like it only controls one device.

Doesn't look that much different than the cheap Logitech I use for my Sammy LED.

If anyone gets one, please post a review here.

If this thing replaced my Harmony One for HT and could interact with the Hopper (e.g.- Search function, type in instead of cursoring over), I'd buy it in a heartbeat. But I realize that ain't gonna happen. Maybe Logitech can volunteer to write the interface for Dish.....

I didn't get that. I think it can handle your HT just as it is today, and add things like typing in input to Roku, etc, so you don't need to cursor up and over to select letters. Nice. But it ain't the full package unless it can enter into the Hopper in similar fashion. I think I'll send them a comment on this.
