New to the Forum... Ipad presentations?

[malleymal]

Hi Everyone,

I am new here and first off wanted to say hello to everyone. I used this forum the last couple days to help decide on what iMac to get and it was a great help.

Onto my current issue. I have an iPad2 and actually just purchased 6 of them for my office to use when we are out marketing my University. I wanted to know what is the best way that this can be done.. Can I design something in power point or would I need a certain program to make an app? I am really looking to have something like what the iPad2s have in the Apple stores now. They are next to each product and they have descriptions and comparisons. I like the way that works.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

They're probably using something custom-built in the apple stores, and powerpoint isn't available (until microsoft pull their fingers out..)

Try Keynote, it's the apple equivalent to powerpoint, and there's a native iPad version available for small change on the app store. It's available for the mac too.

I do a lot of presentations in my work, and was very interested to see this app.

Haven't tried it myself but the demo looks good.

Thanks a lot for the info everyone. I am going to look into the Keynote app. I like the 2screen one as well. We have one on one meetings with families looking at my school and I want to hand them the ipad and they can look at the course loads and see photos and key points. I guess Keynote can help me with this. Thanks again !
