I have just purchased a Philips Harmony SRU 9600 and whilst I was initially happy with this it does not double up as a full remote for my Sky+. While it will pause, record and play, there is no TV guide button to scroll through as I would with the Sky remote and its just not as intuitive.

I can probably still return this to the shop for a refund or replacement, so here is the question, am I doing something wrong, or is there a better universal remote out there to incorporate Sky+.

I have a budget, I reckon up to about £60, so thought I would see what advice is out there.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Here I thought Logitech made the Harmony remotes.
