can I do powerpoint presentations from a usb stick

It says it can and I don't see why it wouldn't. I've used a flash card before and that worked. The wifi is the tricky part.

I know you can if you save the slides as .jpg or (nicer looking) .bmp files. You have three speeds that it will slideshow to the next picture file, but it's not that convenient to depend on the pause/play buttons. If you need to pause each slide for differing lengths of time, I'd prefer to feed it hdmi by laptop.

Yes, you can project this of usb check specifications in asus web page: http://www.asus.com/Monitors_Projectors/B1M/specifications/

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 it will, although I usually only use it for microsoft powerpoint presentations

Yes.Whatever you can do with a mouse, when in PowerPoint, you can do with the pen. Even better, you have the 5 controls on the tablet, and the buttons on the pen, all of which can be customized to give you handy shortcuts.

I'm not sure, but if the power point presentation is on the computer, I would assume it can be wirelessly transmitted to the large screen TV. If you have the time, contact their technical support. Their go-to guy is extremely helpful.

I've never tried to use an external USB drive but I doubt it will power it. As for folders, it will display the

Yes you can. I have mine set up with the 32 bit Microsoft 7 operating system, and I did just recently borrow a USB external CD drive, and successfully installed Mircosoft Office 2003 small business edition (Word Excel Powerpoint Outlook). Not a problem at all. Just be sure, for convenience sake, whatever you install doesn't require a CD to be present whenever whatever program is running, though very few programs are like that. I ran into one that was an automobile service manual for a 1999 model car. The Office 2003 I installed does not need the cd to run.

Sorry don't use it that way. I use it with my laptop for powerpoint lectures.

Yes, I use the projector with my powerpoint presentations that are on my computer.

No PowerPoint. Just a camera that projects jpg files. Not sure whether it would project PowerPoint files converted to PDF.

Once connected the pen works as a mouse so it works with any other programs that you use it for as well as for specific drawing programs. We haven't used it on Powerpoint but I don't see why it would not work. I believe it will. Good Luck.

If you install debian PPC and use that as your OS you can because flash can be installed in it. SEE, http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/108041/how-to-add-flash-support-on-a-powerpc-debian

Yes, you can load a .ppt file onto a USB drive and display it with the projector. The projector has a built-in file viewer and you can control the slides (forward and back) using the included remote.

It does have a USB port. I would web search the device and see if the manual is online. I only use it to do picture slide show.

Yes. You can connect it to a laptop or a camera. You can also just upload your file on the video projector, then disconnect the laptop and do the presentations independently

1 - You shouldn't have any trouble converting between Microsoft and OpenOffice file formats. Please note though, some people imbed videos in their PPT files and Linux has to jump through a few hoops before it will play well with Apple's and Microsoft's proprietary video formats. Beyond that, you should have zero problems here. 2 - The Eee does indeed have a VGA port and you ought to be able to hook up to any projector you like. 3 - I'm not sure about this, but it may be as simple as using a different keystroke in Impress than the one you would use in PowerPoint.

Ignore Brad's answer. There's no way to present a ppt directly from the projector. You can export your ppt from Powerpoint as individual JPGs, and then play those as a slideshow on the projector using the included remote. This sounds more difficult than it actually is. If any of your ppt slides have elements that fade-in, move, etc. that functionality is lost.
