Presentations using a PPC

#1 (**permalink**) 17-08-2004, 08:43 PM

Can anyone recommend a means of connecting a PPC (I have an iPAQ 2210) to a TV? This would avoid the need for a laptop and projector. A bluetooth connection would be ideal. I would like to be able to show a slide presentation, or, better still, a powerpoint presentation, or even the screen as it is.

I have heard about 4:
(1) AnyCom bluetooth SCART adapter
(2) LifeView FlyPresenter,
(3) Margi Presenter-To-Go CF card, and
(4) Colorgraphic CF Voyager VGA card.

1 I have tried the Anycom bluetooth SCART adapter but it only shows low resolution jpg pictures. I had to return this.

2 I have tried this as well but this would not work with the drivers on the CD, but did work to a limited extent with the PPC2003 drivers found on the net. However, I only got a black and white picture and the drivers kept failing. I returned this as well, but maybe the one I had was a dud.

3 This has good reviews but only has a VGA connection.
4 This does not have good reviews.

Does anyone have any experience of any of these, or can they recommend any other?

Has anyone used the Presenter-to-Go with a TV as opposed to a projector? This seems to me to be the answer if a cable exists to connect a VGA output to as S-video socket.

Any help would be gratefully received!

I have only used the lifeview model with a VGA screen and thought it to be straight forward although I used the latest drivers from their site. It has composite and S-VHS out ( you probably know this if you had one ).
