The Smart-Pointer (Red) 2.4Ghz Review And Compare

I've used this for a university presentation in a lecture hall, about 20 feet from the lecturn/PC.

I've used it at work where it was passed around between presenters who had never tried it before.

Works well for everyone in presentation mode. Nice feel in your hand. Really makes a presentation flow rather than sitting at the PC and navigating between slides.

The mouse function is usable (as opposed to presentation mode, there is a switch on the side to select between the two); the cursor buttons function pretty much as expected, however it's too cumbersome to be used this way for long. The up/down-left/right position control is awkward and tedious. I wouldn't buy one for the mouse function but it works in a pinch if needed.

The position of the laser light button between the pause and start buttons (the 3 buttons together) is unfortunate. Hitting the start button by accident will kick you out of your powerpoint slideshow back to edit mode (if using a PPT file) or restart your presentation. Easy to avoid if you're aware of it, but could be better positioned to avoid confusion.

Fully recommend this product, just practice with it for a few minutes before getting up in front of a crowd. I am a junior high History teacher, this product allows me to circulate among the students while using the remote to advance my PowerPoint slides from anywhere in the room. With the mouse function (a simple click of a switch away), I can also click on the video clips imbedded in the slide show without having to go back to my desktop. With the laser pointer I can highlight parts of the maps without having to go back to the front of the room. It is the freedom I need when delivering lectures, becuase it allows me to interact more with the class and not stay next to my computer to advance slides. It was very reasonable priced, so much so that I also purchased a second one for my mother-in-law (also a teacher). While it is not an interacive white board (which would be fun), it is a practical tool that allows me to be in a position to monitor my effectiveness without breaking the bank.
