Re: i'm looking for a 'fast' remote control for dish network rec'r.....

I agree with Sam that the Pronto programmable learning remotes are outstanding. However, I don't think a 'fast' remote is the answer as the responsiveness in channel hopping might be a function of your set top box.

I had a similar issue with a digital cable box. It picked up hundreds of channels but I had to wait about a whole second after switching channels before the picture would come up. This made it painfully slow for channel hopping. I returned the digital cable box and continue to use my regular old analog cable and TV remote... it's so much faster.
