I can never understand how people cope with just activities unless you are have only basic device use. I'd have to create loads or so ever so slightly different activities if I did that, which is double my devices. This is one reason why I prefer a device based remote (with combined layout buttons to reduce swapping to a min).
The inabilty to change the order of or delete the myriad of unwanted entries on the LCD screen (on a Hamrony 525 I tried) was one of the things that went down as a -ve for me.

There will always be times when you need to use device mode, but for me these are very few and far between(and I have a quite complex setup with a projector and CRT TV), and the advantages of activity mode far outweigh the extra button press or 2 required to select a device which happens to be on page 2.
Also, you can reorder and delete unwanted commands from device mode. Just delete the label and the command is gone! The only thing you can't do is change the order devices are displayed in when first selecting them.
