Yes, and you could have the newton remote control a space shuttle. (um,
maybe a bad example :(
But, the point is, you still have to Write the Software to do all that.
I still can't see who wants to give PPT presentations on a Newton. If your
really had a job which required this, wouldn't they give you a laptop for
your presentations? Otherwise, you're just wasting your companie's time and
$$ by putting it on the newton.
If someone (i.e. vendor) came into my office and tried to give a
Presentation with a Newton, I'd say, "Hey, cool newton, but your a moron.
How much time did you waste putting that on there Bye!"
