5.0 out of 5 stars
Well thought-out and recommended -- 4.5 stars really,
This review is from: Gear Head Wireless Optical Presenter Mouse (Personal Computers)
I've waited to review this product until after having it for over a month and using it for a presentation. In a nutshell, it is a good product and worth the money. It is very satisfactory as an optical mouse (its main usage) and was very good as a remote presenter.
Cons: - as noted, trackball is a little touchy, which means you need to monitor your hand waving while presenting -- but I think this would occur with any trackball device, and would only be avoided by getting a remote presenter with a joystick-type point device. It was not a problem for me. - the USB receiver blinks as it receives input: this could be distracting if your computer's USB port is within sight of your audience. However, I used the included pouch to block the USB receiver's blinking from my audience and it looked fine while solving that issue - the programmable 3rd button could have more features: in particular, the "magic" program list option would be more useful if one could assign its programs. - I have more success with the USB receiver directly into my computer (perfect mouse recognition) than my other setup, which is USB receiver into cradle into USB hub into computer's USB port. This may have to do with my hub, and is merely occasionally annoying (the mouse not moving exactly as I expect it should), not problematic. - installing the drivers seemed to affect, in my case, my laptop's touchpad driver. I lost the ability to change my touchpad tapping and scroll-area prefs -- I haven't played around with this, though, and it may be solvable. Pros: - the previous reviewer's rejoinder to the first reviewer is true: there is adequate programability of the 3rd, 4th, and 5th buttons. - the mouse automatically switches from mouse to presenter mode using a sensor on the bottom -- nicely thought out - the mouse seems to automatically lower mouse-sensing activity, probably to reserve battery life - battery life looks to be good in the month i've had it: 4 full days of mouse work at a time without the low-batter indicator coming on - good weight in your hand when presenting: this could have been a problem with a mouse-and-presenter device, but with this product it is not. - pouch is nice and fits the mouse, charging cord, and USB receiver - 4th and 5th buttons are great for presenting: the buttom-programming-options include good ones, including forward, back, up, down, switch application (it looks to scroll through the app list you get in XP by Alt+Tab), screen saver -- these are all useful for presenting - comfortable in hand in mouse role or presenter role In sum, I was pleasantly surprised by this device. I recommend the product.

Nearly perfect,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gear Head Wireless Optical Presenter Mouse (Personal Computers)
I bought this to replace the Gyration wireless mouse I had been using with a Media Center PC. The GearHead mouse is a MUCH better product... The multi-function, programmable buttons are well-placed & responsive, and the laser pointer is a nice bonus. All in all, it's a great wireless mouse, and worth the price--if you need the extras.
A previous reviewer suggested the functions of the right & left buttons can't be switched for left-handed use; they can. Using the Mouse Properties, you can select: "Switch primary & secondary buttons." The same reviewer suggested that you can't click/hold/drag; you can. On the same Mouse Properties dialog box, you can select: "ClickLock," and you can adjust the click/hold settings to your liking. I gave it 5 stars, but it's more like 4.5 - the trackball isn't as precise as I'd like, and I would have liked more options for each button, but compared to all the other similar products, this one is by far the best.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Not very vista friendly,
This review is from: Gear Head Wireless Optical Presenter Mouse (Personal Computers)
After purchasing the mouse I noticed it didn't list vista as a compatible O.S. This mouse worked fine at first then after a few days the optical mouse mode quit working. It only worked in presenter or ball mode. I went to their site and downloaded the newest drivers and it worked again but now after a few weeks the optical mode won't work again. The instructions warn that exposing the light sensor on the bottom of the mouse to bright light would damage it. I'm sure that never happened. My office is fairly dark. I will try to reinstall the drivers and the next time I purchase an wireless optical mouse I will make sure it lists vista as an compatible O.S.
