Does it allow wireless presentations?
1. Make presentation on Mac or Windows.
2. Transfer to the PDA.
3. Give a wireless presentation. No computer involved. No cables involved. Videoproyector in the ceiling.
I wish Apple would make an iPod like that running Mac OS X!!!
Thanks.

So, will it be Mac compatible or is the 650 with Missing Sync the way to go?

Do post this everywhere? /forums/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
There's no wireless video capabilities built into any projector on the market. You should take your campaign there. Good luck though, as there isn't a good standard wireless video protocol for this purpose.
It's not likely to happen, as the market for it would be tiny. Most users are content to plug in a video cable when they go into a conference room.

...what's a "Videoproctor". Sounds painful to me, like getting a colonoscopy, no fun at all...

I read somewhere that Palm may also introduce a Palm OS version at some point? I was anxiously waiting for the new model - until I heard it would be Windows based.
I will continue my wait...

"Unlimited Data" plan required for $399 price. For those not on Verizon, that's an additional $50/month on top of your voice plan. I think Verizon is one of the worst price-wise for data plans. My only complaint since moving from T-Mobile which was very affordable.

There are indeed several projectors in the market with wireless video capabilities! Just do a Google search. As for the market, we would purchase hundreds to start with.
