iPad Keynote.. anyone have?

I was thinking about getting iPad Keynote to review presentations for studying.

1) Does it allow me to import PPT?

2) Can I see notes that were typed on PPT?

Thanks in advance, didn't want to waste $10 on something that wouldn't work for what I need it to do.

I have keynote on my iPad, but dont use it to often. If I remember correctly it does show notes in presenter view, you can for sure add notes to it in Keynote on the iPad. You can import a powerpoint file, I just did a test with a pptx file and it worked. There will probably be some formatting things you will need to watch for once its in keynote, but it will go in fine.

If you shoot me a pm, I can give you my email address and you can email a test file and I can try on my iPad and give you some screen shots of what it looks like.

Just confirming that it import the notes. I use it all the time to do presentations, and it also has a built in laser pointer. i.e. you point with your finger on the screen and it changes it to a virtual laser pointer. It also support a remote, such as your iPhone.
Great application, and definitely not a waste of $ 10.
