Presenter mouse; I just want 1 button!? Any ideas?

[tonyhetherington]

Hi all

Quick question (and work related, sorry!).

I'm trying to find a wireless presenter mouse but they are all too complicated. I'm hosting a conference in a couple of weeks and the ones I've used in the past have been very good, but because they've got so much functionality (control the mouse, backwards, forwards, right mouse click, menu etc) the novice-presenters get flustered and mess it up. No matter what I told them, when it comes to standing in front of 300 people they forget!

So, I'm after a wireless presenter mouse with just ONE BUTTON! That makes it go forwards. Nothing more. Any other functionality I will control from the laptop at side.

Anyone know where I can get one!?

Thanks all
T

I am not sure whether it's possible, but how would the wireless Apple 1-button mouse work on a PC?

Maybe an option.

Apple mice will work on PCs.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Is this the apple mouse you were talking about?

it looks like it does have more functionality though!?

No, that's the new multi-function mouse.
You want the 'classic' one-button type.

ah, I've found it. It's not wireless though (at least the one's I've found) see here...

Am I being really silly? Sorry, been a PC user my whole life, never so much as looked at an Appl!

Thanks all for your help with this

That one needs bluetooth.

Why don't you just get any wireless mouse and then in the config set all buttons whichever they push and wheels to do the same action like left click.......
