It can be set (via the Spotlight's app) to show up to three different onscreen pointers. The much smaller button below takes you back a slide.īut the most interesting of the three is the small pointer button, just above the center button.
A large, curved center button (which is easily found by your finger even if you're not looking at it) takes you to the next slide. The device is very simple, with only three buttons.
(According to Logitech, one charge should last up to three months.) The dongle connects to your computer and communicates with the Spotlight via radio signal you can also connect without the dongle using Bluetooth. At one end is a USB dongle which pulls out of the device, revealing (within the inch-deep recess) a micro-USB port for charging the unit. The Spotlight is small (0.48 x 1.10 x 1.59 in.) and lightweight (1.7 oz.) its rounded form fits nicely into the palm of your hand. The Logitech Spotlight presentation remote is a small, sleek device that allows you to not only move your slideshow forward and back, but to spotlight (hence the name), magnify or circle areas of the screen you can also use it as a cursor to click onscreen links. Logitech has come out with a new presentation device that the company claims can make all the difference for a presenter. And then there's shaky laser pointer syndrome. ("Let's go back to - no, not that slide, the one before that - no, I guess it's the one before - yes, that's it.") There's also the oops-I-went-too-far-hold-on-while-I-find-the-back-button awkwardness. Like when the staffer in charge of the slideshow gets clumsy.
However, I have a lot of experience viewing slideshow presentations, and have watched presenters wrestle with the various types of slideshow embarrassment. I've been lucky enough (so far) to be able to avoid them. The few presentations that I've done over the course of my career did not involve PowerPoint slides - or any other type of slideshow, for that matter. First, let me admit that I don't have a lot of experience with presentation pointers.
