    Difficult to set codes for tv

    It was impossible to find a set of working codes for a Sony Tv and a Sony Dvd/harddisk recorder. The SW search and test function may be OK in some cases, but leaves no clue if you are near to a solution to other functions than on/off volume and chanel select. This may be enough on a TV (?) but a HD recorder needs other complex functionality.

    Great idea, badly executed.
    the bluetooth keeps dropping your mobile device.
    There is no iPad version of the app which is clunky at best.
    The Beacon does not seem to work with my SkyHD+ box
    Took ages to find the right Panasonic remote setting.
    Even when set up to control the TV (only) the Beacon drops the bluetooth connection so you have to go back into iPhone setup and reestablish the connection.
    I get the impression it's been rushed to market before it's ready.
    I bought this from the Apple Store so I'll be taking it back.
    In a word Avoid!
