Now do PowerPoint presentations directly from your BlackBerry for work or School.
For many of us doing PowerPoint presentations is a factor of life whether you’re a business professional, or a college student presenting an assignment. Well, what if you could not only control, but present your PowerPoint presentation directly from your BlackBerry with no laptop required? The development team over at Research in Motion (RIM) announced today the release of The BlackBerry Presenter. The BlackBerry Presenter allows you to just plug the BlackBerry Presenter module into a projector or monitor and select “Present†from the wizard on your BlackBerry smartphone.
Here’s what RIM had to say about their latest product:
BlackBerry Presenter gives users easy control of their presentations, allowing them to navigate their presentations, view speaker notes, loop presentation slides and even reference information on one slide while displaying another. Thanks to a wireless (Bluetooth®) connection between the BlackBerry smartphone and BlackBerry Presenter, users can also walk around freely while presenting (supports roaming up to 30 feet between the devices).
