Microsoft Ships Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000

Microsoft introduces its new Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000, the first notebook mouse to apper as a four-in-one device. It functions as a slide presenter, a laser pointer with digital ink, a media remote control and a 2.4GHz Bluetooth laser notebook mouse. Whether clicking through the slides of a presentation, highlighting a key message with the laser pointer, skipping to the next track of a CD or scrolling through documents on a laptop, this mouse is the only tool consumers will need for ultimate productivity and entertainment on the go.

With the versatile Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000, users can forget about time wasted fumbling between devices; it takes them right from content creation to presentation. With one click of the mode-switching button and a turn of the wrist, users can move from mousing to running meetings and high-stakes presentations with confidence. The bottom side of the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 features all the control buttons needed for easy presentation navigation - forward, back and full screen - and even includes a laser pointer for highlighting a key statistic or graph. It's not only a breeze to use the mouse features to show the sales team the play by play of last quarter's results, users can also unleash their inner sports commentator, clicking the digital ink button to draw right on the screen just like the pros.

When users are ready to unwind or need to view multimedia content for work, they needn't worry about finding a separate remote; they can just tap into the media control capabilities of the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000. The presentation keypad also acts as a media control pad; users can play, pause, change tracks and adjust volume, or watch a DVD - and it's compatible with RealPlayer, iTunes and Microsoft Windows Media Player.

The Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 is also a no-compromises notebook mouse that features high wireless performance, including a battery life indicator and an on/off switch to help users conserve battery life. 2.4GHz Bluetooth technology delivers the ultimate wireless experience, with up to 30 feet of range and enhanced security. The mouse also comes with First Connect Technology, so there are no setup hassles; it works right out of the box. And for added convenience, the transceiver supports a variety of Bluetooth profiles for connections to multiple Bluetooth devices. The Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 is suitable for home or corporate environments with multiple computers, with virtually no interference thanks to intelligent technology that "hops" when it encounters a trouble spot.

The mouse also comes with a carrying case to hold the transceiver and protect the mouse. Whether users are at home or on the go, the Microsoft Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 is the only device they need to deliver effective presentations, play media content and comfortably navigate on a PC.
