While picking up my CES badge at the Las Vegas Convention Center, I made sure to head over to the BlackBerry booth and check out the BlackBerry® Presenter. Luckily, I ran into my coworker Ryan, who was more than happy to provide an on-the-spot demo. Ryan and I roll through BlackBerry Presenter features, the set up process, and get a little meta while talking about 3D light shows during the demo. The above video was taken using my BlackBerry® Storm™ smartphone (blame my shaky camera work on a long day of travel).

I’m excited to tell you about a new BlackBerry® smartphone accessory that gives mobile professionals and management teams the tool they need to deliver presentations successfully! BlackBerry® Presenter enables users to wirelessly present Microsoft® PowerPoint® files directly from their BlackBerry smartphones.

BlackBerry Presenter helps simplify the presentation experience by allowing professionals to lighten their travel load and leave their laptops back at the office.
