Logitech to provide Harmony Remote/PS3 compatibility.......

[Mizzou B-ball fan]

Really happy to see this announced. I know there's many of us on this board who use Harmony Remotes and have been unhappy that the PS3 doesn't play nicely with the Harmony Remote............

Oh this is sweet indeed. Hopefully they don't go too pricey, but this'll hopefully beat the IR dongle work arounds.

I'm curious about the general BlueTooth question. Can I use it for anything BlueTooth? The Wii is BlueTooth, correct? If this is just to control the PS3, $60 is way too much.

$60 bucks, I'll have to look into getting it, better then having to buy a new Harmony remote.

Thats way too expensive.

Thats way too expensive.

Considering the price of the remotes in the first place... I think it's about on par.

[gstelmack]

Compared to the $15 part that does almost everything but turn it on? And that's only because it doesn't come with an AC adapter?

You can buy a decent Harmony remote for around $80. Sure, you can also spend $300 (and mine ran about $180), but you don't have to.
