Customer Review: Perfect Small Quick Scanner for my Office
Great Scanner! Image quality is as good are much larger more expense scanners is a small portable size. The size of the scanner is perfect for traveling jobs. It easily slips into a carryon bag. The scanner is very quick for its size and handles large jobs well. For my start-up company, this was a perfect buy - right price, right size, right features. If needing barcode reading & printing cabability, be sure to purchase the barcode attachment as well.
Customer Review: Best little scanner in the world!
I own a Canon flatbed, which is a really nice scanner, however scans about 1ppm....enter this little jewel...Oh my my...this has saved my life! I am using it to scan all of my personal documents at home and also scanning every document in my medical office. Tremendous time savings as this little gem can fly through anything! I am already dreading the day that something happens to this, as I am totally hooked after using it for 24 hours! Small and portable as well, for those interested in those perks. I am looking to get a backup, just in case... No regrets, no kidding...


The purpose of this article is to compare the Logitech 880 Harmony remote to other remotes in the price class $130-$150.

In this range the following universal remote controls are available:

  • Thomson ROC2404 - Universal remote control - infrared ($149.50);
  • Ruwido Universal Remote Control 5in1 - Universal remote control - ($143.43)
  • Universal Remote MX-650 Omega Remote Control for Audio Video TV ($130.05)
  • Monster MCC AV100 Activity-based A/V Home Theater Controller ($156.87)
  • Logitech 880 Harmony Advanced Universal Remote Control ($143.40)

Of these the Thomson ROC2404 replaces only 2 remote controls and the Ruwido only 5, as compared to 15+in the case of the other three. So, only the Logitech 880 Harmony, Monster MCC AV100 and Universal Remote MX-650 Omega are worth comparing.

At face value the Universal Remote MX-650 Omega is clearly not as attractive as the other two, does not have back-lit buttons and does not have rechargeable batteries + docking station. This is a definite disadvantage, since, according to some reviews, the battery consumption of the Universal Remote MX-650 Omega is on the high side, and you could end up with a dysfunctional remote exactly when you don't expect it. Finally, setting up this remote is quite complicated, to such an extent that customers recommend making use of a professional to help you with this. This comes at a cost, which could make this option too expensive.

It seems like there's not much to choose from between The Logitech 880 Harmony and Monster MCC AV100 in terms of features. Both are one-touch, activity-based, controlling 15 devices, using rechargeable batteries, charging from a convenient, sleek docking station. Both have attractive colour displays with back-lit buttons.

However, setting the system up proves to be a bit of a headache as far as the Monster MCC AV100 is concerned. The online and personal help is also way inferior to what is available with the Logitech 880 Harmony.

Finally, the superiority of the Logitech 880 Harmony is proven by the way it was developed. Since 2004 Logitech has been awarded a total of eight Industrial Design Excellence Awards (IDEA) for technology used in the development of the Logitech 880 Harmony. The quality of the product has been recognized by the public. In a well-known internet-shop the Logitech 880 Harmony is ranked the bestseller among all remote controls, with the Monster MCC AV100 nowhere to be seen. It also has as many as 1380 customer reviews, proving its popularity, as compared to the 11 of the Monster MCC AV100 (numbers August 2008).
