Presentation Bundle?

Has anyone found out information on the presentation bundle for the X50v? I was really hoping a vga-out would have been part of the X50v as I hate packing cables.

The killer app for me would be able to attend meetings and do presentations without dragging my notebook.

At this point I don't see enough value for $$$ to upgrade from my X30h.

Get it from ebay, longer cable. You don't want to be stuck near the projector.

Or Boxwave...Ouch! kinda expensive.!

I'm using Dell's presentation bundle, I know it's kinda short...'bout 15 cm, but I use the original RGB cable that comes with the projector since it have a male connector to be connected to the Dell VGA cable. Now I don't have to stay near the projector and it's cheap compare to buying a boxwave cable.

Other problem is; anyone knows any presentation remote (IR or BT) that works with Axim? it's a bit discomforting having to do presentation with axim on your hand with the cable to the projector.

Cheers,

The cable works fine, but the adapters are a little underpowered. I made a complaint and the seller very generously replaced them, but even the replacements offered only 800ma and 1000ma, both of which are insufficient to power an x50v/x51v with an extended battery or with wireless on, or with a very low battery.

Also important to consider is that if you also use this as your primary sync/charge cable, you will have the vga cord hanging there whether you like it or not. Other options let you only connect what you need, which I imagine would be convenient.

To answer Vennstrom's Q about remotes:
1. I use a Bluetooth keyboard (Think Outside) which works great

2. I bought Conduit's PocketSlides to create slideshows on my Axim (I don't use it much, but it's very helpful when I do). If using this package, it has an option to use the IR port on the Axim so that when it receives ANY IR signal it advances the slide. I just bring along an old remote control from a TV, press any button, and the slides advance. It actually works quite well. Having said that, I tend to use the ClearVue suite (which came with the presentation bundle I bought from Dell) more (with the keyboard mentioned in 1. above) just because it's simpler for me.

CONS
Requires additional hardware for projector display
Uses quite a bit of storage space and program memory


What hardware?
