VidaBox CQC compatible Nevo S70 Remote
#41
SomeWhatLost Wrote:silly question, and I know I saw the answer here somewhere... but I can't seem to find it now... what is the screen size? (ie for making an IV?)

240 x 320.

I gotta admit, this remote has totally changed how the wife interacts with CQC, and the MBR TV. Thankfully now she arms the damn security system herself, turns off the lights, turns down the HVAC herself whilst in bed. IE, without asking me as i'm laying down to get up and do that. The music selection is pretty sweet too, we've gone from never listening to music in the MBR as it was a hassle to select, to, well, sporadic listening. Turns out she's got craptons of bad reality shows recorded via SageTV, and I won't let her hog the big HDTV in the H/T for that junk, so we have very little time for music in there.

The only thing missing from my config isn't an issue with the S70, it's that the ViziaRF zWave driver isn't a true 2way (no polling of non-Vizia devices). Hence we can't actually tell what lights are on by using the remote. If I had that, (or perhaps if I hadn't bought 25 non-Vizia zWave devices) this remote would truly be sheer & utter bliss.

What's next: CQC-Voice, Brultech GEM

I agree, this remote is the perfect CqC device for me to date. I'll likely get a 2nd one once I have my templates ironed out.

For the next version, I would wish for:
-dedicated transport hard buttons
-higher resolution (but not necessarily a larger screen)

Sergio, What's the retail price on this remote? Can't seem to find it in the eStore. Curiosity now for future need/want.

Thanks, I understand that which is why I asked retail. I'm far from certain I'd be able to contribute anything useful in the beta which is why I haven't signed up just for discounts.
