Ever have the need to create a business presentation on the fly but couldn't get to your notebook? BlackBerry is launching Express (beta) , a unique BlackBerry 10.2 app that enables users to create visually stunning and powerful presentations right on their BlackBerry devices. Set to appear in the BlackBerry World App Store later today, Express uses the power and simplicity of BB10's gesture based controls to create presentations that can then be played back using the included HDMI-out port on BB10 devices.
I've been testing the beta of Express on my Z30 and found it to be intuitive and simple yet capable of creating visually engaging presentations that look like they've been created by a desktop application. The idea is the software gets out of the way of the creative process allowing for quick and effective slideshow creation right on a mobile device.
Not just a great tool for businesses and entrepreneurs, I see the value of being able to create on-the-fly presentations for educators and students who want to get ideas across quickly. Presently, there's nothing quite like this app on any mobile platform that we know of. Look out for BlackBerry Express Beta on your BB10 device later on today,

Great app. Easy to create engaging presentations, without fussing with formatting. Concentrate on the message & content rather than the software.
Would be smart of BB to release this app to other app stores, and generate some additional revenue off of it. Perhaps keep things free on BB World though :)
