Long time listener, first time caller here. I stumbled across something
cool that I didn't know was possible.

I have a Harmony Remote for my Home Theatre system. My TV is a Sony 50"
Plasma (KDE 50XS955). When I power on my TV, my PS2 slimline powers on too.

If this is old news, I apologize ahead of time. So be nice....

You'll need to dig around in the options somewhere in the harmony software. Your
PS2 should turn on when you run the "play a game" activity, and should turn off
when you choose "off". I have noticed that sometimes my PS2 will briefly power
on, when I "watch TV", but it will turn off right away.
