ShowMate is a small, lightweight device to project PowerPoint presentations and screen contents wirelessly from a smartphone. Use the ShowMate to give wireless, real-time demonstrations and training of handheld applications and features. And of course the ShowMate still allows you to project high quality PowerPoint presentations right from your handheld.
How It Works:
Connect the pocket-sized ShowMate to a projector or monitor and click on the Impatica Screen Projector application icon on your smartphone. The contents of your handheld screen are then transmitted to the ShowMate via Bluetooth or USB (BlackBerry only) and displayed on any VGA device, without noticeable delay.
The screen projection capability is included with ShowMate

for Windows Mobile devices. It is compatible with all BlackBerry
smartphones running BlackBerry device software 4.3
