Just did a Keynote presentation with one of my coworkers for one of our large 
clients, gave him my iPhone in Airplane mode with wi-fi turned on to use 
'Remote' to control the show. He was awed by being able to see the 'Notes' on 
the iPhone and run the whole show from the palm of his hand and the client 
executive nearly fell off their chairs. The follow up was 40 minutes spent by 
their IT folks trying to get their very own Toshiba laptop to connect to the 
projector that I'd just used without issue and then to get Powerpoint to start 
up and run long enough to 'load the show' (and they'd even seen me connect to 
it and have it running in about 30 seconds). After 40 minutes I offered to let 
them run their show on my machine using Keynote. They did. The show itself was 
not so great, but at least it was able to be viewed.
