Yeah, aside from keeping your phone from ringing and you looking like a Giuliani, this is cool! Assumptions: 1. Hacked iphone. 2. That there is a way to hijack the headphone clicker as Eric mentions. 3. That there is a way to load "slides" onto the iphone. Actually, the existence of this app assumes a lot. I love the features, though, and carrying an iPhone around stage for instant presenter view access is way more handy than holding a laptop. the timer, the coverflow, awesome! Now keep it from falling out of a presenter's flailing hands! wow! Yeah, aside from keeping your phone from ringing and you looking like a Giuliani, this is cool!

Although I'm not sure most presenters would be willing to have an iPhone in their hands while speaking-- usually, the push is toward something so small you can hold it and have most of the audience not notice. Brainstorm! If Keynote Buddy lets you use the clicker on the earbud wire, then you've got a total winner, because the iPhone could be put in a pocket and the wire run to one hand along a sleeve...
