PowerPoint on Blackberry

Jump to Comments

PowerPoint is part of life on the road pitching audiences. Your laptop carries the slides that are run through a projector. You lug your laptop (and power supply) through airport security checkpoints, in your briefcase, on your shoulder. 

What if you only had to bring your sleek Blackberry and a small Bluetooth-enabled adapter (3.5″ x 2.5″ x 1″) with USB port?

Check out Impatica, an Ontario, Canada-based company that makes ShowMate. Combined with a PowerPoint Mobile Edition (included), ShowMate lets you use your Blackberry as a wireless remote control to run slide presentations. ShowMate also works on Sony Ericsson handhelds with Java platform 5 or higher and Bluetooth, or Windows Mobile Smartphone or Pocket PC with Bluetooth.

One more way mobility is helping us travel lighter. Remember, less is more. Keep those slides simple, colorful and informative.
