I'm bummed about this, but it's not a shock given they retired the brand back in 2021. So much for "we will support these devices for as long as they continue to be used" however. This will generate a lot of e-waste.

I have an 880 that my family use regularly with the TV/AV/etc. I don't mind so much navigating the three remotes and several buttons to get movies or TV running, but it'll be annoying having all the extra remotes out on coffee tables all the time now, and repeated instructions to the rest of the fam on how to use them 🥲
