You can use an itemize environment in a table but you still have the same
problems. FoilTeX will spill text from one foil to another if there isn't
sufficient room but you miss out on a header.
You might want to consider using \zerolistvertdimens which is defined as
part of the FoilTeX package (assuming you are using foils for your
slides). This just gets placed as TeX at the start of the first itemize
paragraph and will reduce the spacing on the slide. If you're
using something other than foils for you slides then you can just
copy the code for \zerolistvertdimens into your preamble.
\def\zerolistvertdimens{\parskip0pt\topsep0pt\partopsep0pt%
\parsep0pt\itemsep0pt}
