With its laser pointer, mouse and audio controls, 100+ ft range and low MSRP of $79, the Presentation Remote Pro is the ideal tool for every public speaker and presenter in commerce or education as its range covers large meeting rooms and lecture halls.

No software is required. Just plug the receiver into the USB port on a PC or a Mac and the remote begins to work within seconds.

Laser Pointer -- Highlight key points in your presentation with ease.

Hide Slide -- Darkens the screen anytime that you want to have the audience focus on you.
Receiver -- RF receiver is stored in the remote when not in use. Pops in and out with a simple push of your finger.
On/Off Switch - Ensures that batteries do not accidentally run down when carrying the remote in a laptop bag.
AAA batteries -- Provide long life and are easy to purchase when replacement batteries are needed.

"We released our award winning Keyspan Presentation Remote in 2003," noted Ridenhour. "This new generation remote provides many exciting enhancements -- greater range, AAA batteries, stow away receiver, advanced slide functions -- that our users have suggested."
