I think that you all misunderstand me - CEC works great on the TBS2910 - without that I'd be very disappointed. The problem comes when the TBS2910 is powered off while still attached to the rest of the system by HDMI - it prevents all the other equipment from communicating with each other.
I have 3 Sony TVs and 3 Sony HTs. On all three systems, the TV and HT communicate fine ... until you plug an unpowered TBS2910 into the system .. then the TV and HT can no longer communicate with each other. If I power the HT off, then the TV and TBS2910 can still communicate, but power the TBS2910 off ....
