RIM introduces “BlackBerry Presenter”

We saw earlier this month an easy way to show your presentations by using a “Mobile Projector” accessory for the LG IQ. Today RIM has announced the “BlackBerry Presenter”. This is an accessory that will retail for $199 and can RIM says it “easily plugs into a projector or monitor, then lets the user display a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation wirelessly from their BlackBerry smartphone”. Sounds like a good idea but it a bit limiting as it only works on PowerPoint presentations.

Full specs are:

• Conveniently small and light — 3.4″ x 2.4″ x 0.9″ and 140g
• Video Formats Supported: NTSC, PAL
• Video Cable Support: S-Video, VGA

• Display Resolution Support: 640×480 (VGA), 800×600 (SVGA), 1024×768 (XGA)
• Bluetooth Version 2.0 + EDR, Class 1.5
• Carrying Case: Synthetic Leather
• Support for most PowerPoint animations and transitions
• No additional file processing required – present files directly without having to pre-process the file on the PC
• Languages Supported: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish

Compatible devices are the Bold 9000, 9700, Curve 8500 Series, 8900, Storm and Tour.
