Yeah I’m loving the new Keynote – it’s VERY nice …. although I’m not a fan of the new iLife & iWork logos …

I was thinking if you had it auto rotate it’d just be annoying as I tend to play with the remote while I’m presenting ….

I installed and actually used the Keynote Remote yesterday for a presentation. It worked really well.

It took a few minutes to get used to swiping to advance slides and also the wi fi cue but I didn’t stumble once during my presentation.

Granted you have have the Mac with Keynote and the iPhone on the same Wi Fi, but pairing the two was a snap – much like a bluetooth device. The auto rotate may not be practical since once you in a show you DON’T want it to change as that would change your GUI and since, like me, you may just glance at the iPhone while you are speaking it may cause confusion.

Overall I give it 3 stars for a first app out of the gate. So far the new Keynote gets 5! BH

No!!! say it ain’t so!

bah, click does sound more intiutive than having to slide – especially if you slide passed your slide!

I was thinking that it sounds like it should have a third state to where the presenter can use the accelerometer to put it into portrait or landscape mode instead of having to select it….

Hopefully the next revision has what the world needs.
