DESCRIPTION
uPointer allows the user to increase the visibility of the mouse pointer/cursor by overlaying a mark to the area around the cursor. This mark can either be a circle, ring, cross, line, or crosshair, and has user-definable transparency, size, and color. UltraPointer eliminates the need to bring a laser-pointer along to presentations, and can help users with impaired vision.

WURLIUCHI  I also cannot get a registration number from these people. I sent my receipt to every address I could find for them, but no reply. I'll have to refuse payment when the credit card bill comes in. The software works, but I won't be able to use it with the registration window popping up all the time. Bummer.

LIGHTNUP  The program seems to work fine, but I can't seem to get the guy to send my registration number. I paid the $10 for the program, through PayPal, and I was given a receipt number. But, after two weeks, I can't get anyone from BrawerSoft to respond. I've sent emails to Tech Support, SalesÂ…zero response. Anyone else had this problem with these guys?

ANONYMOUS  in using both the first and second versions of this sw I have noticed that eventually the circleends up several inches above the pointer. Obviously still not a mature product and 10$ is still too much!

EDWARD BRAWER  I haven't been able to reproduce that in any of my testing. Were you doing anything in particular that you think could have caused it? Please contact me with any information you may have.

EDWARD BRAWER  Mouseposé is completely different as it dims the screen around the cursor, which is arguably not the best solution (although I will implement Mouseposé's functionality into UltraPointer for good form). Please actually compare the two before making such comments.

EDWARD BRAWER  I'll be continually beefing it up with features (such as the pulsation effect added to 1.0.1), so I hope that you'll find it becoming more and more valuable in the near future:) Please feel free to contact me about any feature requests as well!

THE BIG K  WARNING: DO NOT BUY uPOINTER. DON'T EVEN DREAM OF INSTALLING IT!

uPointer is a borderline utility worth, at best, HALF of the ten dollars they're charging for it.

But far worse, you will have an irritating reminder coming up every fifteen minutes from the moment you install it!

This is insane! Haven't they heard of a two-week trial?

BrawerSoft.com grossly abuses Mac users. Be forewarned.
