I meant being able to configure the button that invokes the Remote Buddy menu.
Obviously it is a short menu press now.. which can't be altered by
the user (unless I've missed it?) .
Felix has confirmed my suspicion that it can't be changed in remotebuddy...
RB menu can't be moved/configured... if it could, would it help?
I think if one could back up out of EyeTV the same way one backs up
out of Front Row,
it would help the babysitter/casual user/ "she who must be obeyed".
Not being disparaging about myself (and others on the group) but
perhaps we're more comfortable with "nerdy" interfaces than the average user.
I think RemoteBuddy is on the nerdy end.
Serious question: have you had any non-IT females give feedback ..
every household has "she who must be obeyed" ..
seriously if they don't like/get it immediately then there is resistance.
I had a similar experience when I handed over the RM-enabled remote,
she said: "this is not intuitive"

I was actually thinking arrows like (but prettier):

I've noticed a few examples of < Command > that don't MOVE left (up
in my thinking) or right (eg. station and Aspect Ratio).
