Product Description
The RemotePoint RF Combo is a professional remote interface enabling wireless text entry, mouse control, and software support for presentations, video-conferences, collaborative work sessions, and even web-hosted meetings. Both the keyboard and remote control have been integrated into a radio frequency wireless system that eliminates the mixing and matching of "off the shelf" components, while delivering the cordless freedom that only radio frequency systems can. Eight user-assignable RF addresses allow discrete local operation of multiple RF Combo systems while eliminating interference with other RF devices. The RemotePoint RF Combo is designed to be used out of the box with no software required. Just connect the USB receiver, install the batteries into both keyboard and remote control units, and you're ready to go. It's that simple! To utilize the advantaged features of the RemotePoint RF remote control, install the RemotePoint RF software. When active, it enables the remote control's dedicated Forward and Reverse buttons, user-assignable keypad, and presentation software effects. The RF Combo, which is designed to be the ultimate conference room input solution, is a professional interface solution.

2 out of 5 stars Don't count on tech support!   June 17, 2004
Dick Viti (Woodstock, Georgia USA)

I downloaded an update driver that Interlink had mistakenly uploaded to Microsoft and it caused a failure of the RemotePoint and part of my system. Without appearing to try real hard or to be concerned about the mistake they had made, tech support was unable to correct the problem or even get my system to its previous status. They just gave up. Attempts to contact others in the company were futile.

I don't believe they have their devices fully integrated and functional with Win 2000 or XP. I replaced the unit with the Logitech Cordless Desktop MX for Bluetooth. The Logitech mouse and keyboard installed flawlessly and both work great. Great range and much less cost. The Logitech units get Five Stars.
