UEI is a company that I'm not as familiar w/, have to look into them later...

I definitely agree w/ you on Phillips...more problems w/ their products in the past than any other than I can recall. I'm not a big fan of touch screens anyway, and it's all that they can make. I don't know about their cables, but I can make a descent cable out of RG-6 and a "F" connector and a "RCA" end.
Yes I have done a vey deep investigation into UEI - Universal Electronics Inc. They make the cable box remotes for Motorola DCT series and the ones with the DVR also M780. That's how I knew that the Voice Prompt was made by them and you know if they made that one it was going to work with my DCT remote. Sure enough it works. I couldn't get the URC brand to work with none of the stuff I had. I found it not user friendly to work with plus it look like something I would use at work for Intermec Wireless.

I going to get UEI 10-in-1 with RF and do some more testing with it. One project I have is to mount the HDTV in Kit/Den area and hide the DCT 6200 box in the basement/fam room. Then use the UEI 10-in-1 with RF to control that box without looking at it.

That would have to be done after NYears, right now Xmas stuff is going on.. I can tell you one thing I can control all my inflat Xmas Bear and animated bear outside using the Voice Prompt Remote and all my lighting controled through RF devices in the house.
