I don't agree with that. The higher-end remotes let you program a lot of macros. For example in my theater, when I press the "play" button on the remote, it plays the movie and also shuts off the lights. When I press "pause," it pauses the movie and brings the lights up a little. When I Press "stop" it stops the movie and brings the lights up full. That sort of thing can't be done with a $30 remote as far as I know.
“Measuring 21.5 inches each, with 1920 x 1080 resolution, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and optical multitouch technology under their chunky bezels, these two models represent the biggest mainstream push for touchscreen computing yet.”
