Ignore the 1gb designation, this is the memory-less unit. |
This is a must have for anyone who does power point
presentations. If you are a gadget freak you are going to love this
pointer. It has a nice matte black finish that feels very comfortable in
the hand and it is very light. The receiver on their other units is also
a usb flash drive in addition to being a receiver for the unit. This unit does not have the flash drive. I would recommend the 2gb unit as it is
actually several dollars cheaper than this unit. (K72336US)
The laser is green and astoundingly vivid. It was bright and precise at 100 feet in
normal lighting. In a dimly lit room I
am sure it would be useable even further away.
In essence you could put a rather large presentation on the
flash drive and only carry 1 piece of equipment with you besides the
computer. Kensington did this right. It even comes with a very
small zipper heavy nylon case that's padded to protect the pointer. A
suggestion to Kensington would be a slot in the case large enough to carry 2
spare AAA batteries. It would provide a
little peace of mind for Murphy’s law interventions.
The instructions are basic pictographs. You really couldn't
get any simpler. The unit moves the Powerpoint slides forward or backward
and turns the presentation on or off. This allows you to have the ability
to point at your slides and move them all with the same unit. This may seem
pricey but it certainly is a good purchase and would be a great gift for the
person who uses power point presentations.
