I remember hearing that the reason the AW presentation module limited you to 640x480 slides was because MS insisted on it. Not sure if there's any truth to that (or indeed if AW does impose such a limitation; never used the prezo part of it), but if so then Keynote is an even more interesting move. Let's all say a brief prayer before bedtime that AW's Cocoa rewrite has been in the works for the last 18 months.
