The range of the remote to the computer is 150 feet, according to Kensington. Better yet, Kensington provides a 4GB micro SD card with the remote to get you started. No need for your computer as long as you have access to one that can read you files. You can save your presentation to a micro SD card and take it with you. The  great feature about this dongle, and what makes the remote stand out, is that the dongle is also a micro SD card reader. To make the connection between the device and your computer you use a USB dongle. It is formed, almost like a mouse, to fit in your hand. Speaking of using the remote, the device is very comfortable in the hand. I used a remote this past year and I was always pressing the wrong button because the buttons were not where I expected. They are straight forward, and you don’t have to think about which buttons to press when using it. Personally, I really like the layout of the buttons on the remote. However, it does the job in a pinch, and I have never tried a remote with decent mouse controls. Overall, these basic functions work great with the exception of the mouse mode, which is a little clunky. It has buttons for advancing and reversing the presentation (very responsive), a button to black out the screen for times you want to hide a slide, a laser pointer and a mouse mode to control the computer from a distance. The Presenter Expert works like most presentation remotes I have tried. Wouldn’t it be better the have something that can allow you to stand away from the computer and wirelessly switch through the presentation? The Presenter Expert by Kensington might just be the tool you are looking for. If you give a lot of presentations on your computer the last thing you want to do is have to flip through slides using the arrow keys on the keyboard. $59.99 (red laser model) $79.99 (green laser model)
