Wonder how it decides. Yeah alpha, would rock! Yeah that would be a big help. I did turn it off on my own on my phone to test that, but by then was already having to man the lappy so didn't want to play with it while people were watching, LOL. Auto reconnect would be cool, as well as a way for StageManager to auto reconnect to keynote. It seemed that it sometimes randomly lost keynote and I had to restart it. Yeah 13 is my new max, LOL. Oh yeah, I'm well versed in flaky wifi, LOL. though I did try to keep an eye on it, and it seemed pretty good, and not many other folks were on it, despite the high nerd count, LOL. @canis

We should probably sort them alphabetically, though -- I've added it to the to-do list! Connections are usually robust, but (obviously) unlikely to survive the iPhone shutting down the Wi-Fi, which it does to save power if it thinks it is not being used. We have already added a "prevent your iPhone auto-locking during a presentation" option, but it's not available in the App Store yet. Soon, hopefully! If necessary/feasible, we'll also look into an auto-reconnect in future versions. At the end of the day, some people just have flaky wireless! Having extra presentations open in Keynote <i>can</i> cause extra CPU load, but it should be very minor. I haven't tried it with 13 presentations open though! -c John,
