Universal Remote Ideas?

I'm thinking about getting my parents a universal remote for Christmas because they need to use three right now (TV, cable, Blu Ray player) which is a complicated mess.  Any suggestions?

I was looking at the Harmony remote but they struck me as being kind of complicated.  Not only to program (which I will be doing) but in some cases you need to hold down buttons and aim for everything to go into effect (judging from the Amazon comments).

Also, it probably wouldn't be a bad idea for me to get a new remote for my game room.  I do have a universal remote but it's cheap and clunky.

The one I use for most of my clients is the MX-450 by Universal Remote. It is much better than the Harmony remotes as long as it is programmed properly. If you want to pick one up online I can send you an easy step-by-step on how I program them most effectively.
