Who Needs 5 Remotes When One For Less Than $20 Will Do?

We just got AT&T's cable system with its interesting and almost too confusing remote. Add to that our TV, VCR and DVD player, and that makes for 4, count 'em 4, remotes. Come digital crossover time, that makes 5. With universal ones so inexpensive these days, we decided to do some shopping. Our results were overwhelming.
The One For All URC 4110 4-Device Remote has oversized keys, menu, mute and channel keys, a built-in sleep timer, 30 min. memory back-up and a price of only $11.87 $9.91. (Prices went down since our posting.)
Philips also has one with big buttons. Their
PM3S Universal Remote takes up to 3 devices at a price of $8.99 $8.47 with battery saver, sleep timer and code search set-up.
Have a home theater system? Sony's
RM-VL600 Remote can handle up to 8 devices, has a learning function for programming from other remotes and a price of $19.99 $22.94 (This one went up.)
Finally, we found the RCA 3-Device Universal Remote for only $2.87 $2.85! It features channel recall, button selected station recall, and code library with code saver function if your batteries fail.
We are gathering our other remotes for drawer storage as we speak.
