Not Totally UniversalJanuary 5, 2008 I bought the URC6690 as a Christmas gift. I was unable to control the DirectTV DVR Model HR40. The manufacture never replied to my email asking for help upgrading the device. The controller may not work with any DirectTV DVR's so beware. The remote seems to be well built but only a few buttons are programmable so it cannot learn an entire remote control.
Good features, but one annoyance and poor life spanOctober 13, 2007 I'll echo all the positive things others have said - it controls all my devices (with some learning), battery life is fine, key layout is good.
But two big negatives: (1) as others have noted, it is annoying that you have to hit a key to wake it up before doing anything, including using the hard keys. (2) the graphics on the illuminated keys are wearing out (going dark). The "skip" key (the most frequently hit) started wearing out right away, but isn't noticeable because in Cable setting, the worn out center part is off. Now (about a year), play, pause, and power are wearing out.
one other gripe, but minor: it's a little short on buttons. Mainly, it lacks Day+/- or DVR tuner swap. There were unused keys to remap to those, but I can never remember which I used.
I'll use it till it breaks, but I won't buy another Kameleon style. I'll stick with OFA, but with an all-hard-key model.
Kameleon 6 Device Hybrid Universal Remote UR6690November 26, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have previously used a one for all remote but since I have more devices I decided it was time for an upgrade, well that and my supposedly new panasonic remote conked out after a year of use. Anyway this is an awesome upgrade it controls about 5 devices RCA (tuner/cd player), Sylvannia DVD/CD player, Panasonic TV. This device I decided to purchase because the previous RCA 8 device learning remote stopped learning and working all together after two days, it seems as though it cannot handle too many devices at one time.
This device is great it works for all my needs and has been working steadily for two weeks which is a record compared to my RCA univeral remote. Anyway I have used ONE FOR ALL brands in the past and have had success using them for many years....I tend to get tired of switching remotes and to cut down on the clutter this is a great alternative. I like that it has the buttons you use most often in rubber and the buttons you use less often on touch screen. The button placement prevents wear and tear of the buttons most used verses less used. Its awesome and since it only lights up the touch screen keys that pertain to the function I pressed I don't have to worry about pressing the wrong thing.
Another good thing is that only part of the remote is touch screen and their is a timer on lumination so you don't have to worry about eating up battery life. One thing that can be considered good or bad is that the remote has to be started/illuminated again by pressing any button before it will allow you to perform a function like changing the channel, etc. Its good because it allows you not to make a mistake if you press a wrong button or drop the remote. Its bad because sometimes you just want to change channels without having to press a button to activate the control illuminating the screen, then press the channel up or down.
Since overall it is an excellent remote, has thousands of preprogrammed functions, and codes for all brands and even has customer service to help find your code and enter it via phone allows a five star rating. It also has a learning function to convert other keys on your regular remote to the device. I highly recommend this product! Its a great device and definitely worth the price.....a must have!

Put and end to a clutter of remotes all over your coffee table! This is the best universal remote I've ever used, it's also a learning reote incase you have older equipment that other universal remotes don't recognize.
A+++ would definately recommend

I have had great luck with this unit. The Macro keys allow you to let younger family members switch functions on complicated Home theatre setups with a single button. Battery life is good and programming is saved even with dead batteries. Learn feature is handy on rare components, but most units program very easily.
"Sleep" mode takes a little getting used to. If something happened to this one, I would buy another in a heartbeat.
