Subject: slightly OT: tablets
Date: Mon, 19 Jul 2010 19:51:52 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1FAFF721-2D6C-4F56-9B0F-A53D8D9B1EE6@uni-bonn.de> (raw)

Hi all,

this is slightly OT, but maybe someone here has a helpful suggestion: since the announcement of Apple's iPad, tablets have become the rage. I am somewhat underwhelmed by this type of computer, but I see one area where it might be interesting to have one of those babies, and that's presentations. What I'm dreaming about: a tablet that would be able to show my manuscript (of course, a pdf produced with ConTeXt) on it's own screen and drive a presentation (again, pdf) on an external screen/digital projector. That way, I would need only one technical device, no paper etc. for my presentations. I even called Apple, but they said there is no app yet for doing this on an iPad. Do any of you have any insights: is there anything on the market yet that would make this possible? Is it at all feasible
 ? Does it sound like a reasonable idea? 

All best

Thomas
