bluepointer.jpgIn the world of consumer technology, there's certainly a payoff in being the "world's first" anything. Of course being the world's first in anything useful is a difficult feat, which is seemingly the exact reason why things like "the world's first 3-in-1 Bluetooth headset with laser pointer and LED flashlight" are born. And of course, it always helps to have companies like Brando pushing technologies to their illogical conclusion.

The logic behind the combination of a Bluetooth headset and laser pointer is that they're both office-related technologies, and therefore it sort of makes sense to have them in one centralized location. You can take a call and then point to something on a PowerPoint presentation. Just don't expect to complete both of these tasks simultaneously without a lot of clever maneuvering. "Having paired the BluePOINTER with a HID profile supported PC, you can remotely scroll your PC presentation," says Brando.

The reasoning behind the inclusion of the LED flashlight, on the other hand seems to be a little less strategic. Once again, a quote directly from Brando: "The ultra-bright LED flashlight is a bonus unique feature." So there you have it.

The BluePOINTER 3-in-1 Bluetooth headset with laser pointer and LED flashlight is available now from Brando for $90.
