Replacement for RS 15-2116

What is a decent replacement for the Radio Shack 15-2116? I bought a couple a few years ago (for <$40 each, I think). They still work fine, but have been dropped enough that the LCDs are completely broken. I looked on RS's website just now and found nothing like my 8-in-1.

What is out there these days for <$50 which can control a tv, dvd, ReplayTV and receiver?

Look at Rob's first posting in the Marketplace forum. If you JP1 (and don't want to bother with a new-style cable to deal with most of the new JP1.2 remotes), your options are pretty limited these days.

The URC-8910 is usually considered to be the closest analogue to the RS-2116 (with the 9910 analogous to the 2117 - with the RF base station), but you may want to look at a 6131 or 6131n, which if you buy from Rob, are pre-modified for JP1 and are somewhat smaller, but have no LCD display - which many feel is not particularly useful anyways.
