Can you run a presentation slide deck (powerpoint, etc) from the SD slot?

No. I don't believe it will accept PowerPoint. You probably would need to convert to a compatible video format.

No. This is a projector only and has no software to support Office or Adobe products. It it very rudimentary when going through pictures, almost like looking at them on a digital camera. This works best, I've found, when hooked up to a laptop where the laptop has control over the content. Hope this helps.

That's a good question. There is a question posted here that answers the Keynote presentation part, but nothing about Powerpoint. I'll have to try it.

I don't think so, and neither does my husband. We have both used it for slide shows. It's a minimalist item. I used it with my laptop to show slides of my paintings; he used it with a USB flash drive for a presentation at work. Neither of us was overwhelmed with the results. The connectivity was a real issue.

I haven't tried that, I have used PowerPoint with no problems. This tablet will do anything a laptop or PC can do. I love this tablet

I believe you can. I didn't buy this for myself, but for my grand children, but have to think, why have the sd card slot if you can't save at least something to it?

We solely use the VGA and HDMI connections to our MacBooks. I can not really attest to other connectivity options but if you mean a SD card, there is no SD port on this device. The product description claims you can project JPEGs from a USB thumb drive but I haven't utilized that feature.

Yes, sort of. You have to save the PowerPoint as a picture file, and you can click through that way. The only challenge is you lose animations and transitions, so it works best with simplified presentations.

I don't know about that as I have never tried it. However, I use a wireless Power Point presenter for presentations, and it works fine. There are 3 USB ports on the computer and all function well.

Yes you can. Even though I do advice to use a dedicated usb drive with the pictures connected to frame for viewing. The internal memory of the frame does not fit many pictures

Some possible uses I can think of... if you have your presentation on a memory stick you can plug in to the projector. you might be able to use it to plug in a "presentation clicker" not sure on this put possibilities.

Has a slot for a mini sd card. You have to change your ppt file into pictures (via free shareware) and put them on the card.

I had to use an SD card. I didn't find that to be an issue. The scanner worked great, and I did several thousand slides!

If you can find it, the Dell X51 is excellent. With the right adapter, it can even run Powerpoint directly with a VGA projector. I used this feature extensively when I was lecturing. It's harder to get it to work with the current crops of PC. The Ipod Touch is an is another excellent standalone PDA, and easier synced with itune.

YES, no problem if you are playing the "Play all the frame's pictures" slide show which is the default slide show. The Pix-Star Customer Support Team.

I am also interested in this question, since I am thinking of switching to PSP from Elements, which DOES allow this.

Yes. Its possible but its only for a firmware update and presentation from other display devices that support USB videos like some high-end mobile phones. You cannot use the port to view slideshows or other files eg movies loaded on to the drive.

Yes. The Toshiba Excite CAN open powerpoint slides. It comes with an application called "Quick Office" (Lite version) which can be used to view ppt presentations.
