Ok, I didnt think this was worth making a whole new thread for, so i'll just post it here:
I went out and got the Zune remote, knowing that I wouldnt use it nearly enough to justify it's $30 price tag... so as soon as I got home, i whipped out my good ol' universal
learning remote, and made it 'learn' all the functions of the zune remote! needless to say i was back at bestbuy returning the zune remote within the hour.
just some food for thought!
