There are almost as many PowerPoint to Flash conversion programs as there are users who want to do the conversion. Three of the best converters include:
Macromedia Breeze

Articulate

PresentationPro

Since the field changes so frequently, I suggest you research the various tools by searching the newsgroup and the web for "powerpoint flash converter."
In addition, Impatica makes a conversion product using Java instead of Flash. It can be found at http://www.impatica.com
Finally, Latitude Communications makes MeetingPlace iCreate, which is based on Wanadu's conversion products. Information can be found at http://www.latitude.com/prod_svc/icreate

Looking to get the audience involved in the presentation? Try Turning Point “ a PowerPoint add-in that adds polling questions to the presentation and gets feedback from the audience on these questions while running the presentation.
In addition to creating questions, Turning Point also stores the audience responses for evaluation after the presentation.
