4.0 out of 5 stars good remote...but where are the instructions?, January 5, 2008

I just purchased this remote. I can tell that it has the ability to do just about anything you need it to; however, the user manual is very limited. So far I have only been able to set up the basic functions for my other components. A more useful user manual is definitely needed! I consider myself pretty tech savvy, but this will take a while to figure out. I just hope my attention span can handle it.Denon RC-7000CI Universal learning remote with PC interface

5.0 out of 5 stars How Did I Get Along Without This Little Gem!, August 20, 2009

By	P. Montgomery "kappa987" (Southeast US) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Denon RC-7000CI IR/RF Remote Control (Electronics)

I absolutely love this thing...It makes working my system so much easier! I would have paid the $300 MSRP for it eventually, but when it went on sale for $207, I had to have it. As far as I'm concerned, it wipes the floor with other remotes at any price.

STRENGTHS

Has hard, (i.e., not touchscreen), transport keys. Touchscreen remotes typically make a cumbersome, menu-driven, insanely-annoying multi-step "process" of SIMPLE TASKS like Play, Stop, Back, Fast-Forward, etc. On the other hand, most remotes that do have hard transport keys still heavily emphasize the menu navigation keys, with the transport keys seeming like an afterthought. The 7000's transport keys are logically placed with respect to one another, making use convenient as it should be.

Just about every button can be programmed/customized.

Warns you when batteries are getting low.

Gloss black remote with blue backlighting wins high marks for wife approval.

WEAKNESSES

Software freezed my computer up considerably more frequently than most software.

Learning function sometimes required several attempts for it to take. Fresh batteries, and experimentation with several lighting scenarios did not yield better results.

I have relatively skinny fingers and still find the buttons to be a bit small, particularly the fast-wind and previous/next buttons.

A dedicated backlight button would have been icing on the cake.

I'm on my 2nd one. The backlighting didn't work on the first, right out of the box.
