 Presenter is not "plug in and play" June 14, 2008
I want a good presenter and a regular mouse. I chose Microsoft because I thought it would support its own product. But surprisingly, it can't. I have to install a software to make it fully functional for presenter.
If you just go to someplace to do a presentation, do you think you are allowed to install a software to other peoples' computer?
As a mouse it is good, but as a presenter it is terrible. It also seems that if your laptop has a Bluetooth device already, the mouse's Bluethooth will interfere with it.
 Works well but might break. May 30, 2008

I bought one of these. Used it approximately 20 times. As a mouse/pointer/presenter it works just fine. But... Trying to replace the battery, I pressed the button to the battery door. The door partially released and was stuck half way out. Needless to say eventually the little attachment hinge broke. A frail little piece of plastic at the top of the device gave way. Door won't close now. Microsoft won't give a replacement door and doesn't warranty that part of the mouse. "Because they get jammed." There's a very weak link in a fairly expensive piece of kit.
Lesson learned? Don't buy an expensive all in one item. Buy something that looks bullet proof. Of course you don't know whether it is until you buy it. Next I'll try a Kensington presenter and laser pointer. Mouse will be a separate item from now on.
Other than that, the mouse/pointer/presenter worked fine. Be aware that some of the many extra function buttons are easy to press inadvertently while giving a presentation. You might want to disable them in software.
 Great presenter and trainer tool!! May 28, 2008
This wireless presenter mouse is one of the best mice that I have ever had. It's compact, protected with its carrying case, and it has all the functions that I need as a trainer. I can move about the room within 30 feet and manipulate the screen from all angles using a projector. The one button to switch between mouse mode and presenter mode makes tasks simple. At first the sensitivity was a little high, but you're able to modify that with the Microsoft Mouse software. As long as you use the same USB port for the dongle every time, installation is quick and easy. You even have the ability to configure additional buttons for quick access to key functions you use frequently. With the double A batteries, you won't have to worry about losing or forgetting a charger. Lastly, I honestly haven't noticed any change to my battery life of my laptop.
All in all, this is a nicely priced mouse (I paid $50 + tax w/free s&h), especially for the value to receive with this product. Great Buy!
Great ! May 20, 2008
Excellent mouse, conectivity, range, confort to use, battery life. Features: it has everything I could have asked for when I am standing in front of tons of strangers giving a presentation.
Excellent overall.
All True Presenters Must Have This Mouse May 19, 2008
I'm floored when I see people presenting without one of these. It truly enables a smooth and rich presentation.
