Most PalmPilot demos are casual, informal, unscheduled, one-on-one affairs, the kind that goes on in thousands of grass-roots, face-to-face encounters every day. But if you're ever asked to show the PalmPilot for a larger group--to show your DinkyPad product sketches to your design team, for example--don't sweat. Because it has an LCD screen, the PalmPilot looks great on camera, free from the rolling lines that appear when you video a computer screen. Put your PalmPilot in its HotSync cradle to hold it steady; set up a tripod with a camcorder zoomed way in; and route the camcorder's signal to a big-screen TV or projection system.

That way, dozens of people can see what you're doing. But be careful: the PalmPilot virus just might become an epidemic.
