 10 dollars for this remote, are you kidding me!? December 5, 2008
Simply put, the Sony AX1400 is awesome. I use it to control my Receiver, Zune Dock, TV and XBOX. Programming was not that bad, I had it up and running in about 30 mins. The fit, finish and weight of the remote radiate quality through and through. This is not a cheap 10 dollar remote as the pricing would suggest. I would highly recommend this product, I like it so much I just placed an order for a second one to hoard away!
 Great product for the users that have a lot of devices to control. October 31, 2008
This is a great remote. It can control alomost everything. It even can control my Sirius Radio. Easy setup when you have the remotes and use the computer. The express feature is really nice. The only down sie is it take a little bit of time to set every thing up, but well worth the time.
 Average Performance, and some flaws... October 30, 2008
This RC looks nice and does most of the job it's supposed to do. I have 3 concerns:
1) The XPress function ALWAYS fails to control (on,off,input selection, etc) one or more of the multiple components I programmed it to control in the "macro" or sequence of actions you program using the software.
2) I ALWAYS need to point the RC almost perfectly to the TV or Receiver InfraRed. It seems to be not so powerful when sending signals. And yes, I did use BRAND NEW alkaline batteries.
3) The GUIDE and MENU buttons, which I use a lot when using my cable box, are relatively small and hard to press.
Bottom line: I won't return it, but I wouldn't order another one.
Nice remote, if you only need it for sony products. September 16, 2008
For the price, this remotes got to be the bargain of bargains, except I kind of cheated a little. I'm only using it for sony products so I don't have to hassle with programing it. For some reason I can't get into the down loaded programing file anyway. It says something about I'm not authorized to open the file because of some administrative reason. I'll have to get my son to help me figure that one out. It's a good thing I don' need to program it anyway. Otherwise I'm very happy with it.
Great If it wasn't sony August 24, 2008
So this is a good product in spite of Sony's normal ham-fisted proprietary-ness. I bought one for myself and for my not so tech savy parents and WHEN you take the time to set it up it works great.
Some notes
You have to install the software on the cd because it installs the driver for the remote you can't get it from sony's site. You can only get the updated software (sony being stupid again).
Use the advanced mode they shouldn't have bothered with the simple mode
I ran into a problem that my Amplifier switches video between my dvd player and my mythtv but the sony sofware couldn't understand that they were on the same tv input so I had to fool it. I have 3 inputs cable video 1 and video 2. Video 2 is the front pannel and isn't used. I sneaked around this problem by telling the software I had six inputs so now it thinks my inputs are 1.Cable 2.DVD 3.empty 4.empty 5.MYTHTV 6.empty this works because it justs keeps hitting the input button. It's a stupid hack but it works.
I love how cheap this remote is. It is Great.
