Bluetooth as a controller.
Finally discovered a easy way to make presentations with remote controlling. It's via Bluetooth, and as I have a Dell D600 machine and the latest Ubuntu installed on it, I was able to make BluePad work with it nicely.

Also I have a simple Nokia cellphone, which also has Bluetooth; and since I have a telecom contract that allows me to use it, I'm now a happy camper about cellphone-controlled slideshows.

It also works for music players, moving mice and stuff like that.

Nice. There is something similar here: https://mooo.dev.java.net/. It's developed by a friend here from CERTI, and it's based on a Bluetooth framework called Marge (https://marge.dev.java.net/), from the same guy. Marge is very cool, the last nice thing they did was multiplayer pong game and a Tetris controller that uses a mobile with an accelerometer (next step, mobile-based wii-like controller?). :-)

I've been using it for more than a year! Works like a charm...
