Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Slide Show Commander allows a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation to be managed from a handheld computer, freeing the presenters to convey their message from anywhere in the room. More than just a remote mouse, the software application enables presenters to navigate to any slide, see their notes and slides on the handheld computer, write on the slide by writing on the handheld screen, and use a built-in timer to track and record the length of the presentation. Scribble on the screen and your highlights show right on your presentation. Navigate with the touch of a button. Map the handheld's hard keys to a variety of functions.

The handheld connects to the personal computer via a synchronization cable or cradle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Item description doesn't do it justice..., September 28, 2005

This review is from: Slideshow Commander (CD-ROM)

The item description (above) and box don't really illustrate all the features available on this item. Maybe the review was written in another language & translated?

This item is for your Pocket PC or Palm Pilot. I've got a IV - works great. It installs a mini-version of PowerPoint onto your device, which you can carry with you or plug into ANY multimedia device - TV, monitor, laptop, computer, overhead projector, etc.

You can tailor the settings, view/customize your slides, keep notes/slide titles, and set a timer (just like Power Point) so you don't lose track of time during presentation. Navigation and notes are invisible to the audience during your presentation.

For me, this is much more convenient than carrying around a laptop, or worrying about equipment when I travel. This makes my Palm Pilot more valuable than my laptop. I give it Four to five stars.
