Very simple remote.
-Just a few buttons.
A little downside:
-It would be nice to have one button that takes you directly to the menu because you have to back your way out through a tier of submenus to get to the home menu.

There is no power button on the remote, but there is a sleep option in the Apple TV settings menu. From: "never up to 10 hours".
