I've used the One For All brand quite a bit, nice cheap remotes, not sure if I'd go for that one, I'm a fan of some of the simpler models.
They make nice products that will last you a long time so no doubt in that area. How much are you looking to spend because there are other remotes you might want to consider.

if by cool you mean expensive, then thats almost an oxymoron...
the one i have pictured in the first box is cool...it has an LCD screen which changes depending on which devive your using it for.
go harmony, i have a harmony remote and i'll never go back to regular remotes
where do i find harmony remotes?

I have a One-for-All I bought from Walmart. In fact, I have one and there is one in the living room also for that tv. Same cable box on both, remote works great. I'd stick with a cheap remote (around $20ish) because you know how remotes are.. They get thrown around or lost. Would you really want a $120 remote with a cracked screen? Not me.
6 remotes ?
WTF is in your office ?

this is the one i've got it's an older one, the only thing i don't like about it is it doesn't have a designated chapter forward and back button, they're on the screen, and definitely go with a harmony, harmony's use macros behind the scenes to automate everything, mine even allows me to flip through tv listings on the remote screen to pick what channel i want (updated when i plug it into the pc via usb)

Logitech makes them. I don't know about Canuckistan but here you can get them at places that sell computer stuff. NewEgg and Zipzoomfly for instance.

yeah, we have this one, although it lags a lot so i just usually push the buttons on the tv and tivo or dvd player or playstation.

mine lagged at first, but i just changed the delays and now it's responsive, that's the first step when you get a harmony, their delays are way overly cautious
