First of all, there is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to utilize technology that exists. The OP already said he was lazy. So what?

I was part of the original thread on discussing this issue when the Elipsa first came out. I had fun pairing various devices to my Elipsa hoping to test the page turn feature. It seemed only a dedicated presentation device would do the trick. In the end, it wasn’t something I needed, so investing money into a Bluetooth presentation device didn’t interest me. I imagine others in the thread felt the same.

Secondly, the Logitech R500 has been the only verified device that I have seen working with the Elipsa as a page turning device (as seen in that YouTube video above). Now that the R500 has been discontinued (replaced with the R500s), you can get them for $45 USD instead of $60. Personally, I still would rather spend $45 on something else than this, and I have no need for a laser pointer, but if I could pick up a used one under $20, I might jump at it for the fun of it.
