Product Description

Manufacturer Description

Manufacturer Description The MoGo Presenter Mouse X54 combines a unique wireless mouse and a presenter remote in a small package that can store and charge in your laptop's ExpressCard/54 slot. Using your computer's Bluetooth connectivity, you can use the Presenter Mouse X54 as a full-function mouse or as a remote to control your presentations from up to 30 feet away from your laptop.

The MoGo Presenter Mouse X54 offers: Wireless optical mouse with 30-foot wireless range. Remote control of presentation software to go forward and back on slides. Mouse stores and charges inside ExpressCard/54 slot.

Award-Winning Design Makes Traveling Easy
Designed with the traveler in mind, the Presenter Mouse X54 is not your usual mouse. Rather than trying to squeeze an awkwardly shaped external mouse in your laptop bag, you store the X54 inside the laptop itself, in your computer's PC Card slot, where it's also charged.

When you need it, just eject it from the card slot, flip out the integrated kickstand to comfortably position the mouse, and you're ready for action. The X54 offers the same functionality as conventional laser wireless mice -- scroll, right click, left click -- without the bulky, oversized design.

The Presenter Mouse X54 is compatible with laptops with an ExpressCard/54 slot. If your PC has a PCMCIA, Type I/II, or Cardbus slot, you should use the MoGo Mouse BT. (See accompanying chart for the performance features and compatibility details of each MoGo Mouse.)

Full-Size Performance and Features
The Presenter Mouse measures just 2.1 x 0.2 x 3.1 inches (WxHxD), but that doesn't mean it doesn't offer the same performance as larger mice. With a patent-pending optical system, it provides 800 DPI resolution for precise tracking. It also has two buttons, the ability to scroll, and is Bluetooth-enabled, offering wireless operation with a range of 30 feet. (To add Bluetooth capability to your laptop, you can use the MoGo Micro USB Bluetooth Adapter, sold separately, or purchase the MoGo Presenter Mouse X54 and Bluetooth Adapter combo.)

Give Great Presentations Wirelessly
In addition to functioning as a mouse, the Presenter Mouse X54 does double duty as a presentation tool with the push of a button. The Presenter Mouse lets you go forward and back on presentation slides, and has a start/escape button. A laser pointer is also built in, so you can highlight and add emphasis to your presentations.

Built-In Rechargeable Battery Saves Money and the Environment
Unlike other wireless mice that require expensive and environmentally unfriendly battery replacements every few months, the Presenter Mouse X54 has a built-in rechargeable battery that is automatically charged every time you store it inside the ExpressCard/54 slot. This saves you money and helps you protect the environment. It takes about 30 minutes to recharge the battery, and a single charge gets about 8 to 10 hours of normal use.

The MoGo Presenter Mouse X54 is backed by a two-year warranty.

The X54 Pro is a great work of engineering. They managed to fit a full tray of functionality into a tiny card sized mouse. While not as comfortable as a full-sized mouse, the X54 is actually quite light and easy to use. Pointing feels precise and easy. Three button free moving operation is a nice step up from cramped trackpads with 2 buttons. Even though it doesn't weigh very much, it still feels solid in the hand. And driverless operation is always a plus.

Similarly, as a presenter this mouse is great. Comfortable, small, functional... the built in laser is a great touch. It's basically everything you could want in a bluetooth presenter.

Of course, the biggest feature of the mouse is its ability to store and charge within a PCI-Express slot on your laptop. The mouse is hidden away in my laptop except for the very tip of the end nub, which uses LEDs to show charging status. Whipping it out is a momentary task, and the mouse is ready to use almost instantly. While I've been too lasy to drag around my other notebook mouse, this one is definitely getting some use.

There are only really a few issues that I would bring up in the functioning of the mouse. One, the inclusion of the touch strip scroll wheel is a welcome addition, but the actual implementation seems off. Scroll speeds are jerky and unpredictable, and it frequently gets the direction of the scroll wrong. Second, the mouse has light which blinks to let you know which mode it is in. It looks pretty, but the annoying constant blinking light has a way of drawing attention towards the mouse and away from whatever you're trying to present.

I can't speak to the long-term durability of the mouse, as it hasn't been released for very long. This review may be revised downward in the future if longevity issues arise. But for the moment at least, I've finally found a notebook mouse / presenter that I can actually use. A great Sophomore effort from Newton Peripherals.

I have hated carrying bulky wireless around with me when I travel. This little card which fits in the computer is fantastic. No worrying about batteries running out, plugging in a wireless adapter, etc.

On top of that it operates powerpoint presentations flawlessly and provides a laser pointer to boot.

I don't know how I managed without it. Highly, highly recommended.

My only complaint --- the scroll wheel function is a little sensitive --> I haven't tried to manipulate the sensitivity yet in "Control Panel", but that is likely also adjustable.

I love this product because I don't have to carry a bulky mouse around. I love how I can recharge the device by plugging it into my pci.

However, the biggest problem is its sensitivity. Whenever I select the scroll button, it automatically scrolls down. I figured that I account this problem to not being use to the sensitivity. It's been two months and I'm still having the same problems. I have made sure to select the middle of the scroll area, but I'm still having the same problems. I can't adjust the settings, so I'm SOL. Also, at times I find that I loose the Bluetooth connectivity between my laptop and the device. I don't necessarily have to connect the device, but it does take a while before the two are connected.

Overall, a good device but still needs improvement.

FYI: Running Vista SP1 and a Dell XPS 1530
