"Based on the familiar shape shared with new and old remotes such as the Harmony 550 and Advanced Universal Remote for Xbox 360, the Harmony 510 has a different color scheme and a slightly different key configuration, including two fewer buttons...Unlike the 550, however, the less expensive 510 includes a battery status indicator and guided online set-up, in addition to what Logitech calls Onboard Intelligence and One-Touch Activity-Based control functions...Physically, the 510 differs from the 550 as it replaces the bottom Sound, Picture and A and B buttons with four color-coded buttons that act as shortcuts and gets rid of two dedicated up and down buttons...Like the other Harmony remotes, the 510 requires four AAA batteries to operate, and is compatible with Windows XP and Vista as well as Mac OS X 10.3 or later..." read more »

"Varied selection is good, but too much selection with so little price difference can be confusing – and so, recently, Sony decided to simplify their offerings with the introduction of a single new model...The $15 USD MSRP Sony RM-V310 replaces both the $15 five-device RM-V302 and $20 seven-device RM-V402...Although the RM-V310’s name might lead you to believe that it’s the direct descendant of the RM-V302, being capable of controlling up to seven devices would make it more closely related to the RM-V402...Thus the simultaneous release of the RM-V310, which is nearly identical to the RM-VL600 save for a few minor design changes to reflect the modified specifications..." read more »
