My last post about LCD projectors reminds me that I am often asked what is the best way to project your handheld screen (especially since the demise of the much-loved Margi Presenter-to-Go).
My current favorite solution to this involves special software that “mirrors” your handheld to a desktop or laptop computer, which you can then project. Here is the software I use:
Palm – HandShare
Pocket PC – Pocket Controller
This software is great for teaching students (or teachers) handheld applications, as well as for presentations. It’s also great for screen shots or screen casting. (More to come on screen casting in a future post.)
Here is my desktop with two devices hooked up:
