This works so well that the first day I used it I was flipping through slides by accident! My old clicker needed line of sight and this is soooooo much better! I can teach from the back of the room now :)

This is a very handy presentation remote. It has all the basic controls you need for Powerpoint presentations. It installs quickly on any computer from Windows 2000 through Windows 7. I haven't tried it on a Mac or Linux.

I bought it to replace the model 60' which had been stolen to me. For the price difference, this one is definitely better.

Awesome little remote/wireless mouse. Laser is pretty powerful, I can see it clearly across the street on my neighbors house. Perfect for Netflix users. Tip: get a usb extension cable if connected on the back of your computer. I've got 6' one for little over 2$ shipped from [...].

This product is everything that advertised. No setup required. Mouse control is great. The point is compact and takes up very little packing room. Due to its compact size, though it might be an issue for someone with large hands. It could also benefit from a tether strap, so that it doesn't get lost if a presenter forgets it's in their hand. The laser pointer could be improved by changing from red to green as it is hard to see in a well-lit room. Otherwise a solid product, and real value.

Great remote for presentations. Fully plug and play, just plug in the USB receiver and it just works on XP and above. Inlcudes mouse pointer, left/right click, slide advance/rewind, blandk screen, volume control, and laser. Unit is compact, and the USB receiver slides nicely into the remote body for 1-piece storage. Highly recommended for those that can benefit from being untethered from presentation PC.

As a part-time conference speaker, I've struggled to find the right remote. I present on a Mac, so that often makes the process more difficult. The Mac infrared receiver is horrible so have a separate USB receiver is a must. Many of the remotes make you open the battery compartment to get the receiver out, which is not too efficient. The Keyspan Pro has the USB readily accessible at a quick click on the end.
It's also difficult to find a remote with two things (1) large, advance buttons, easy to find when you're not looking and easy to push AND (2) a volume control. The Keyspan has both!
With the laser, large USB, large buttons and volume control this is virtually the perfect remote. I can't say I'd use a timer on a remote, but that's the only thing it's missing.

This is my second Keyspan Remote Pro, so I can say that although they are rugged, they don't necessarily hold up to repeated assaults by a determined 2-year-old. But they are just perfect for Powerpoint presentations. No set up -- truly plug-and-play -- so I take it along whenever I'm giving a presentation, even if I'm not using my own laptop and projector. The dark-slide button is an especially nice extra, but really, the beauty of this remote is not that it has lots of bells and whistles, but that it works consistently and effectively. Also, the range is quite good. I have had no problems using it in a large lecture hall, with the computer at the very back, when I'm up on the stage.

This remote works exceptionally well. I use it when I am conducting speeches or presentations using Keynote. It controls, volume, allows me to have a black screen, as well as forward and backwards slide movement. The built in laser pointer allows me to just have one device for all of my presentations. This is the way to go.

I use this during our worship services.
100' range means I can control the computer in the balcony from the platform in our sanctuary.
Volume control means I can adjust my multimedia during worship even when I don't have a sound person.
With this remote, I don't have to have any tech crew during worship. There's nothing better.

Product is used at a church for powerpoint presentations and such. The features are awesome, being able to move the mouse, use both mouse buttons, control powerpoint slides, and even the laser pointer can be useful. However even with direct line of sight 100' range isn't happening.

Used it for guest speakers for a conference. We definitely put the 100' range to the test. Worked great! Even worked when the guest speaker kept pointing it at the projector and not the computer. :)
Also loved how you could control the volume of the computer with this device.

This product works well, but only after I figured out that you need to get the presentation all set up and projecting before turning it on. When I turned it on first the presentation started jumping forward slides on its own (very amusing for my students).
