We have a ClickShare - it works well, but was very pricy. It basically is an AP (luckily it can do 5GHz so interference wasn’t a problem) that talks to the dongles. The benefit is the simplicity for Windows and Mac users; we get no support calls on it. The down side is the cost (4 digits for the device and USB dongles).

I know it's been discussed here in the past a couple of times, but any idea how it compares with some of the other solutions mentioned here already? Just at a first glance I'm not too wild about it since it basically looks like an AP that gets connected to a projector or display. -- Julian Y.
