Wireless presenters allow teachers, lecturers and businessmen to control their Powerpoint (PPT) slides remotely. This frees them from the notebook or PC and allows them to engage their audience better.

Basic models can cost as little as $30. Advanced units cost over $100. Popular brands include Microsoft (models 8000, 3000), Targus (AMP01US), Logitech and Kensington (33373, Si600).

What is a Wireless Presenter?

Wireless presenters are designed mainly to control Microsoft Powerpoint on Windows PCs. Other software (web browsers, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Apple Keynote etc) usually work too. Apple Macintosh and GNU/Linux machines might encounter issues if the unit is not designed for them.
