This is a decent little gadget. I use mine to control the computer I have hooked up to my TV for watching Netflix and Hulu. I also have the Targus AMP02US which is a little better. The PAUM30U has a similar thumb joystick-type control (the unit I received looks different from the one pictured). The response is a little slower compared to the AMP02US, but once it gets going it is just a shade faster. The thumb control can also be depressed to act as a mouse right click, which is something the AMP02US doesn't do. I don't use the laser pointer (the AMP02US has a mouse only mode which conserved battery life this one doesn't have) is activated by a undermounted trigger which might be nice if I used the pointer(the AMP02US has a mouse only mode which conserved battery life this one doesn't have). It has some function buttons (for PowerPoint I guess) that I don't use, so not sure how useful/effective those are.
Range seems to be about 15 feet about the same as the AMP02US. Construction seems solid. I would recommend stepping up to the AMP02US if you can, especially if you're a Netflix fiend, but this will work fine.
