If you are looking for a solution to control the PowerPoint presentation on your computer from an external device, consider installing iClickr. This application runs both on Windows and Apple computers and is easy to install.

To install, download the application to your computer and then install the iClickr application for your phone (iPhone, Android etc). Works best when run over a wireless network and only requires the two devices be connected to the same wireless network.
