2 out of 5 stars Unreliable, but small, concealable, and inexpensive   November 11, 2008
I've owned several presentation remotes, including two from Interlink (SMK-Link), one from Logitech, and this Kensington. While I like the small size of this unit, which makes it easy to conceal, I cannot recommend it.

The most important feature of a presentation remote is its reliability. I have to be absolutely confident that a click of the button will advance the slide. If I'm not, at best I spend too much time looking over my shoulder rather than at the audience, and at worst I look silly -- standing there clicking the remote at different angles to get the result I should be able to rely on.

This Kensington -- like the Logitech -- fails to respond far too often. Perhaps the transmitter is too weak, or perhaps the software is poorly written, but I could never trust that the slide advanced when I clicked the button; I always had to look. Every slide.

Just about every Interlink / SMK-Link product I've used has been highly reliable. Problem is, they tend to cost twice or three times as much as this device. Consider the SMK-Link VP4300 RemotePoint Presenter - Special Edition or the SMK-Link VP6450 Presentation Pilot Pro. I own the VP4300, and it's both small and highly reliable with outstanding range (though the laser is weak, if that matters to you).

So that's your trade-off. For professional presenters, it's a no-brainer -- the technology has to work every time. For very occasional presenters, the low price of this Kensington might be a wise trade-off.

One more thing: if you're buying a remote for your guest presenters to use at your own facility, please, *please* get one that won't embarrass your guest, as I'm afraid this unit will.



5 out of 5 stars Great Product   October 9, 2008
Great little product. I replaced one that stopped working and this new one is supurb


5 out of 5 stars Kensington Wireless Presenter is GREAT!   May 27, 2008

This is a handy little tool that is extremely convenient and works well. The only functions are to move forward, backward, or blackout the screen in a PowerPoint presentation, but if this is all you need (which most presenters generally only want these features) than you're set!


5 out of 5 stars Great Product!   February 24, 2008
This remote allows me to wander all over large rooms and still be able to advance my slides. Storing the USB that plugs into computer in the hand unit itself is great. I HIGHLY recommend this product.


5 out of 5 stars Great remote!   March 11, 2007

This is a great remote! I left my Keyspan Remote at a presentation in St. Louis and was devasted. I searched the net and, decided to give this little remote a chance. It's great. The USB fits inside the remote when I am not using it which is quite handy. Plus this little feature also ensures the remote is turned off. My Keyspan never did seem to turn off on its own. This remote takes AAA batteries which is also quite convenient and cost effective. But the best part is - it works great. I really like it better than my Keyspan. It has a "blackout" feature which is great for switching between my PowerPoint presentation and writing on the white board. If you are in the market for a new remote but don't need a lot of fancy features - this is the one to try.
