Can this be used for powerpoint demonstrations

Yes. That is what I use them for. There is a USB port in the device (very nice, it keeps it safe and sound). I put the USB jack in the computer and it sets up in a few seconds. This way you can walk around the room and advance the slide from anywhere in the room. It has a good range. If you animate the slides then you can show what you want step by step. I also like it because it is small, you can barely see it (I keep it in my left hand which leaves my right free).

Yes. I have used it with PowerPoint presentations on both Mac and Windows. I have also used it with Prezi presentations on Windows.

Yes it most definitely can be used for power point presentations. That's why I got one. Works great.

iWork is great with ppt, vivalarevolution. Only thing is that Keynote is so far advanced beyond PowerPoint so some of the amazing transitions won't carry over. To be perfectly frank, OpenOffice.org sucks compared to MS Office and iWork.

Yes it will. I use it to show powerpoint presentations at off-site locations for work.

Yes. I was able to present a ppt presentation via a jump drive. However, most of my presentations were via a laptop.

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've only used it twice that way and had no problem. It was saved as a power point slide show. I don't know about one not saved to go straight to slide show. I've used several through the computer and had no problem.

You would have to buy Office for Mac to use Powerpoint. You can buy a student version of the software for around $100 which will include Word and Excel.

If you mean power point slides? Yes, you can connect it to any computer, lab top or even tablet (with the right connecting wire attatchment).

Personally I rarely use it for text because the resolution is low. For instance when it shows my desktop, I can barely read the file names. For a Powerpoint presentation this may not be an issue as long as the font size is large enough. However I bought this over a year ago and it is still working, so these are very well-built and long-lasting!

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

All you would need to do is download the application you want and your good to go. I see there is a one called Documents to go that is compatible it has Word, Powerpoint, and Exel.

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.

It does support whatever you computer screen shows. I use it for powerpoint presentations all of the time

Powerpoint gives you the option to save as a jpeg file. It will generate a separate jpeg file for each slide, and you can then display the slides as photos. It won't have any animation or video capability, but for simple presentations it works fine.

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.

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.

As you describe your intent - Sorry, no. I've had zero luck attempting to use my PPX2340 as "an external or duplicate monitor. However, if you're trying to project slide shows, it's possible to use this projector. You'd have to load the show to either a thumb drive or transfer it to the projector's internal memory. I've done this with pics; so, there's no reason you couldn't make your "slides" into pics and do the the same.
