Since you liked your 550 so much, why not just get another one. Just got a deal from Newegg for a refurb 550.

Haha I was just coming here to post that! Slickdeal alert tipped me off. Problem is, that’s recertified. I’ve already had bad luck with a new one, I’m kinda hesitant to go refurb. I paid that much for it brand new a year and a half ago.
In the meantime, a friend is letting me borrow his xbox media remote that he never uses, so at least I don’t have to use a friggin’ gamepad to navigate everything anymore. I love how it has such soft, squishy buttons (the 4-way directional and OK button on the 550 were hard plastic buttons and really uncomfortable to use). Judging by the pictures of the 600/650, I think ALL the buttons are the rubbery squishy type thankfully. Still no response from Logitech though. I checked the best buy coupons and they’re good until the 16th so I’m gonna wait to hear from Logitech until the last possible minute.
