Anybody need a "Wireless laser for presentations"?

[conuly]

I did not get my new adapter. There was apparently some sort of mix-up, and I got a wireless laser instead. I'm now getting my adapter, a new order's been placed, and they said I should just keep the laser. Except that I have no use for such a thing. So if anybody needs one, I'd be glad to hand it over. Preference goes to people in the city. If nobody jumps to respond, I'll just donate it on freecycle or somesuch.

What, like a laser pointer? How on earth do you get mixed up between that and an adapter? o_O Oh well, lucky you (or whoever you give it to).

If it's a laser pointer, I'll buy it from you! I can't tell you how long I've wanted one. :-P

It *has* a laser pointer - how much do they go for that you can't buy one yourself?

I have no idea. I haven't seen one conveniently in a store lately, though. And um, other'n that, I'm kinda lazy. Well, that and my mother would be all, "what do you need THAT for?!" :-P

So what *else* does it have? o_O

*Damn* that's cool.

[conuly]

Yes, it is!

I'll gladly send it to you for the cost of shipping and maybe a little more so I can get me a book or something. Or get Ana a book or something. Whatever.

(Anything that involves shipping means I want a surcharge, otherwise I'll forget about it and you'll never get it, just like most people never get crissie pressies from me.

If ladyshrew decides not to take it I'd be happy to (shipping + book/anna money) - my dad needs one of those and it wouldn't make a bad christmas present.

[ladyshrew.livejournal.com]

If your dad needs one, I'll cede it to you. I just think it's REALLYDAMNCOOL. I don't really *need* one. :-P

[strangelette.livejournal.com]

Hehe, he can always have the business pay for it; I'm just always on the lookout for presents since he's a bitch to shop for :) I totally default to reallydamncool - I got to use one in a seminar last semester and they are as fun as they look.

[ladyshrew.livejournal.com]

LOL! We could play the "be polite" game!!

Welllllllllll if your dad can get his business to pay for't...

..... why do I have a severe sense of deja vu, like I've seen that before? Have you posted that link before?

And yes, it is a very cool thing.

Ahhh, neat, though I don't need one.

[maelorin]

how does one mix that up for/with an adapter? similar product codes?

anyways, way cool looking device.

[conuly]

I'd assume so, but I really don't know.

Otherwise, I found their tech support good and helpful - though I squicked a little at the phrase "hope this helps". I'm going to have to go through some sort of 12-step program eventually to get over my fear of that phrase, aren't I? THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT, LJ!

[maelorin]

'hope this helps'?

I always respond with, "what, you're not sure it will/would" [tense to suit]

*hugs*

at least you have an opportunity to get back at lj ... ;)

[conuly]

That's the LJ support argument.
