Pointer For Power

This curvy doodad is essential to anyone doing regular PowerPoint presentations. Atek’s Tote-Remote allows up to 30 feet of roaming distance to let your unhinge your vice-like grip on that safety blanket called a podium and really deliver that extra presentation punch to your audience. With the USB base using a radio frequency to communicate with the controller, you don’t need a clear line of sight during your presentation, so get out there!

Cathy Lyons, Executive VP and Chief Marketing Office at Hewlett-Packard, shares this about her Tote-Remote:

The lightweight, wireless Atek lets me control my PowerPoint slides while giving me the freedom to roam the stage. And it’s simple to set up: I just plug a small receiver fob into my laptop’s USB port. With only three buttons, it’s almost foolproof. One stops and starts the presentation, one is for page navigation, and one activates the built-in laser pointer. My Atek has become like a security blanket—I pop it into my bag whenever I hit the road.

See, it even replaces the podium for that extra bit of nerve calming security the next time you’re standing in front of a few hundred people. Chances are Cathy presents in front of at least a few thousand people at a time, so most of you are likely to have it a bit easier than her already. If the Atek Tote-Remote can work for her, it can certainly work for you. Get the point?
