What remotes are compatible with Patriot Box Office?

My PBO remote seems to have failed (only a few buttons on it are working). I've been thinking to RMA it, but since it's me that has to pay for shipping, and I will likely have to ship the remote AND the box for RMA, I first want to see if I can buy a replacement remote instead, for the price of RMA shipping. It can be either an original remote, or a universal programmable one.

There's no justification for me to buy Logitech Harmony remote, unless I can get my hands on some cheap one.

Suggestions?

Thanks.

Look on Kijiji or here and post a wanted ad. I know many people who have broken their PBO in the past and had fully functional remotes. Shouldn't be to hard to find someone willing to part with theirs for cheap.

You can get a learning remote from ebay for like $8. Borrow a fully functional PBO remote and have the signals learned.
