Homemade LCD Projector
Above is a video of a homemade LCD projector
Homemade LCD Projector
Wow that was pretty interesting. It looks like the person just took a flat screen monitor and placed it on an overhead projector. In other words, the flat screen was placed where you would normally place a transparent slide sheet. The resolution and brightness look ok on the video, but it's hard to judge that sort of thing through a YouTube video. All in all, the person seems to be very happy playing his Xbox on his big screen contraption.

Is the Penta Sport a good PowerPoint Remote?
Now that's a good question because not all remote mice are created equal. The Penta Sport was designed from the ground up to be a "PowerPoint Remote". It was designed for PowerPoint. The primary objective was to create a mouse that would facilitate the process of giving a computer presentation. They wanted it to be long range, simple to use, ergonomic, and to have special buttons assigned to specific PowerPoint functions. The result of their hard work is the Penta Sport remote mouse and it incorporates all the goals that the engineers and designers sought after. Therefore, it is safe to say that, Yes, the Penta Sport is a good PowerPoint Remote. In fact, it is a GREAT PowerPoint remote!
Make no mistake. The Penta Sport was designed for PowerPoint. It has three (3) buttons dedicated to control specific PowerPoint functions. These buttons are located right below the joystick. The first two (2) buttons are the "Slide Advance" buttons which allow the user to mover forward or reverse through their PowerPoint slides. The third button (labeled function key) allows the user to pop up and start the PowerPoint software application at the touch of a single button. The Penta Sport also works great with "Apple Keynote", "Adobe Presenter", and/or most other presentation software applications.
Basically, I think a PowerPoint remote is any remote mouse that can be used to control a PowerPoint presentation. Now depending on the specific "PowerPoint Functions" that are built into the mouse will help determine how good the mouse is at controlling computer presentations. For example, the Penta Sport has 3 buttons that are dedicated to PowerPoint functions. This makes the Penta Sport a great choice as a PowerPoint remote.
