5.0 out of 5 stars USB and handheld must be synched, October 5, 2007

By	Celia B. Sinclair (Charlotte, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I saw where many had stomped on or tossed out the Presenter 3000 and I was about to join their ranks. Changed out the batteries, only the laser worked,imminently patient husband of mine grew impatient, etc. Then I read about the synching process, from someone in the discussion board, and tried it. Voila. Worked on both computers and worked without re-synching. Then I noticed the "instructions" for such are actually under "Troubleshooting," but it wasn't clear what to do until after I had done it. So, first push the USB button at the top once it's plugged in. I held it on push. Then, push (and hold) the little button on the back of the device. Green lights should flash and you are good to go.

1.0 out of 5 stars Comparison MS Presenter 3000 - Logitech Cordless Presenter, October 1, 2007

By	M. Nussberger (Zürich) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am a lecturer who likes to move around freely, i.e. up to a good five meters away from my laptop. I first bought an MS Presenter 3000, without consulting any rewiews, I stumbled over it in the store and on the package a suitable range was promised. I found myself restricted to about 1.5 meters around the laptop for reliable use. I nevertheless used it for some time but got annoyed more and more. I found out that I am not the only person having troubles with this device. So I did not even gave the MS Presenter a second try through replacement, but - before bringing it back for cash refund, to be able to make a 1:1 comparison - I bought a Logitech Cordless 2.4 GHz Presenter for about double the price. It was worth it. With the same batteries, the Logitech Presenter has a reliable range of at least 10 meters.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best in kind, December 7, 2006

By	Zitty - See all my reviews

Sometimes MS does things right... This is a great product; I've tried a few and also own a RemotePoint Global Presenter(2x the price...). Compared to the GP, the Microsoft Presenter wins in all aspects: the laser pointer is much brighter, the mouse controls are much more efficient (with a smart speedup feature), the layout of the buttons is easier to remeber, it's smaller and easier to store in your laptop bag, and also important is that its USB dongle is much smaller (that's very important if your laptop has two USB ports side-by-side, like mine; the GP blocks the use of the second USB port). Plus, it's seen by the OS as a mouse, so there's no SW to install :-)
