|
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Great value, unfussy product with strong design
Comment: I am really, really pleased with this purchase:
- completely intuitive to use
- four buttons - forwards, backwards, black (and unblack) the screen with...
- laser pointer as fourth button
- fits snugly in the hand
- no software; just plug in the USB receiver and start so...
- works on any machine
- no need even to reboot the computer
- USB receiver stored inside so you can't accidentally switch it on
- cheaper than many competitors
The only down side is that it makes me feel an idiot that I didn't buy one sooner!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Brilliantly simple!
Comment: I just wanted to be able to detach myself from the laptop whilst presenting to customers and teams, and this little gadget is perfect. Nothing fancy - just forwards, backwards and fade to black (plus a pointer) - but that's all you really need. It came very quickly, worked straight out of the box on any PC I plug it into (no software discs to load) and folds into itself for storage. Wish I'd got one ages ago! Highly recommended.

Summary: Thoroughly impressed
Comment: I bought one of these a year or so ago, it get's a LOT of use and has been 100% reliable. I've just recommended one to a colleague, it really is a good bit of kit.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Excellent
Comment: Simple to use, not cluttered with too many functions. Forward, Back, Stop. That's all you need for Presentations. The only other control is the laser pointer.
The receiver fits into the handset and cuts off the battery while in there, saving your batteries. The shape is perfect so you can maintain a loose grip and move around freely. It sits in your palm, just in the right place. Also the underside is made of a material that is non-slip if you put it down on a surface and also doesn't accumulate sweat (yes, its a problem in long presentations!)
Also the supplier I got it from delivered (via normal post) in less than 24 hours despite stating 2 to 5 days. All in all, great.

Summary: Does exactly what it says on the tin!
Comment: I do a lot of presentations with my job, and wanted a reliable & simple means of controlling Powerpoint etc remotely. This does the job perfectly.
It's plug & Play (both on my XP machine, and also my MacBook) and has controls to enable you to: -
1. Move forward (i.e. page down in PPT)
2. Move backward (i.e. page up in PPT)
3. Blank the screen (i.e. pressing B in PPT)
4. Fire the laser pointer
It fits nicely into the hand, too, and the USB receiver stick clicks into the body of the handset for easy storage. Obviously it works for other applications, too, and not just Powerpoint. It just emulates the keypresses shown above, so you can view PDFs, Word docs etc in the same way.
All in all, an excellent bit of kit.
