Borrowed from Video Game
Technology
I'm talking about that big silver disk in the
middle of the Penta Sport remote. That's what they call
the Navigation Joystick. I call it the best thing I've
EVER seen on a remote mouse.
Why? There's a little secret about the
joystick that I didn't pickup from the User's Manual.
Ok, I was fumbling around with the joystick and I
noticed that it allowed me to press in on it. That's
when I discovered there's more to this joystick than
just X and Y
coordinates. Sure enough I was on to something. It turns
out the joystick has a built-in clicker!!! A clicker
being the left button function on a standard PC mouse.
And Why Is This Important?
Let me try to explain the ramifications. It means they
will have to re-write the books on modern technology
(ok, maybe not all the books, but at least the ones that
have to do with giving computer presentations). You see the integrated clicker on the
joystick means I can advance PowerPoint* slides with the
same thing that controls the mouse. Therefore, the
significance is that 99 percent of the things that most
people do with a remote mouse can all be done with that
big easy to find silver disk. |

Integrated Click Button that is found on the new Penta Sport remote
mouse. Designed for PowerPoint, but they did such a good job on the
joystick that it's suitable as a general all purpose mouse.
