Does anyone else think this would be fun? That is to use your phone to control powerpoint if the professor is using a remote. Like he turns to the board and changes slides with his remote.. turns around and you flip it back.. ect all class.. would drive him nuts.. Tho I know you have to install stuff on the computer so its not really possible.. but.. he is using bluetooth right?

at my school, when showing presentations on the interactive screen thing, the laptop is hooked to the screen with wires, so looks like no bluetooth involved, unless you use something different.

if it's a video projector, then he's probably using the rf or ir remote that comes with the projector, not bluetooth.

You need a learning remote for that

If he's connected the projector so that the screen is showing his computerscreen, and he has his bluetooth on, you could BlueJack him. And the message would appear on the big screen

I did it at a quiz the other night! Its difficult though! The guy had his laptop connected to the projector and we could see everything he was doing. I did a quick BT search and as usual I got a list of 20 diferrent people. I scrolled down and the Laptop showed up as "D800," I thought it would as I worked for Dell for Two and half years and I knew the Model. So I tried to connect the remote control, but it needed the damn pass code. I tried connecting a few times to see if he'd connect to me but he just kept closing the pop up. I doubt he even knew what Bluetooth was! So then we decided to give up, too much hassle! But then he left the laptop and went to get a drink at the bar. He he! My mate went up to it accepted the Bond and we had control! We tried changing the score, but its way too difficult, its a bit of fun messing around with the cursor because he thought his computer was F***ed!
