I'm in the market for a remote clicker/laser pointer for powerpoint.  Since I'm looking for academic teaching positions currently, I feel it would be a good investment.

I don't know anything about them.  Can anyone offer brands/models to look at?  Things to be aware of?  Ones you like the best?

You mean something that will work as BOTH laser pointer and remote controller?

I have a laser pointer that I bought year ago for less than $2. Still works

Seems like I have overpaid...

yes, I'm looking for primarily a remote controller for powerpoint.  I hate walking back to my computer to manually move the slide forward.  Especially when there are 2 or 3 points I want to make on each slide.  I like to walk around when I teach, and to go back and pull up each of three bullet points in succession is annoying.  So primarily, I want a remote for powerpoint.  I'd also like it to have a built in laser pointer.  I currently own a laser pointer, but when I start carrying around the clicker, if the laser pointer is built in, that's one less thing to have in my hand (not to mention the chalk/white board marker, too).
