Customer Reviews:

Great compact presenter & laser pointer for the price! [Posted on 2008-04-28]
I purchased this wireless presenter for my laptop for doing presentations at different meetings. I've used it several times and it works very nice as advertised. The four buttons work nicely to forward and reverse the slides and darken the screen plus the laser works for pointing, no matter what distance from the screen within 30 feet.

The on-off button is a little tricky as others have mentioned, but works okay. Just make sure to turn it off as I can see problems with dead batteries when packing the unit inside the computer case. It even comes with a nice cloth case to pack the unit in. Overall, nice product for the price!

Only works for powerpoint, only sends pageUp/pageDown, not configurable [Posted on 2008-04-30]
This pointer works, but only for PowerPoint. I naively assumed that if you could use it to go back/forward on PowerPoint, you could also use it for a iPhoto slideshow or some other application. Not so. You can't set it up to do anything other than send pageUp/pageDown, and alt-tab.

Good product but weak laser, loose battery compartment, and one failure [Posted on 2008-04-30]
I bought one of these Powerpoint presenters in August, 2007 for use in my college chemistry classroom presentations. It works great, although the laser pointer is too weak to be seen, so I use a separate, more powerful laser pointer in my presentations.

Recently, the USB unit on my pointer failed within the 1 year warranty period, so I returned it to the manufacturer for a replacement unit. In the meantime, I purchased a second unit as a backup, should a future failure occur, as I depend on this device every day, and it has become very inconvenient to present lectures without it. The manufacturer did supply a new unit within the promised two week turnaround, so I have no issues with their service and support.

One further problem was encountered with the second unit I purchased. The battery compartment in the remote unit is too large, so that the AAA battery can flop around and lose connection. I installed a folded paper "shim" between the battery cover and the battery to prevent the battery from moving around in the compartment, and have not experienced any further problems.

Great Work Tool!!! [Posted on 2008-05-06]
Worked exactly as it said. No problems with anything. Best work purchase yet! Thank you Amazon!

Couldn't use it [Posted on 2008-05-12]
Somehow I missed the specs if they were there. It did not work on a Mac. I did get a prompt refund.
