Jeff,
Crestron does the same thing- delivers many of the most common devices' IR codes.

Anyone needing some help programming their crestron- I have an IR learner and (schedule permitting) would be happy to have codes learned for you (youd need to supply the remote though).

I can tell you that I researched both systems a little before going with Crestron. Since the people I was working with preferred Crestron, thats how I went- I figured I had the support and contacts if I needed help. I've been to many custom installs in my area (East Coast USA) and so far I've not had the chance to play with AMX/Phast things.

Best regards,
