Title: Sony cutting corners again
Review: The functions on the remote are fine, but that's not rocket science anymore.The overall manufacturing quality of this unit is on the low end, not what you would expect from Sony, though this seems to be a trend with Sony products in the past few years. It lacks any visual indicator that the remote if functioning (like a small light indicating that a button has been pressed). So, you may find yourself troubleshooting whether it is syncing to the unit correctly, is low on batteries, or has some other problem.In my case, it's been a series of "has some other problem". In the past, reseating the battery has made it work sometimes. But now it's failing to work altogether, leaving me to use a PS3 controller to control blu-ray discs (which is annoying).I can't say if it's a pattern with these units, however, as I've only tried one.
