Hi Graham,
Thanks for looking at Slideboxx again!
Regarding the download: it’s not required for people to subscribe to the newsletter, one can download the Slideboxx trial from here: http://download.cnet.com/Slideboxx-Prime/3000-18483_4-10867597.html?part=dl-6310371&subj=dl&tag=button
Of course it would be great if people subscribe to the newsletter list. It is very low volume and we mostly send some tips about how to use Slideboxx during the trial and announcements of updates.
I’d love to hear if you have more feedback about Slideboxx, you can reach me at info@zinali.com
thanks again,
Zinali, LLC

Graham, are you happy with your choice of software after further use? As it happens I am in need of one such program myself now, and would be grateful for any further info.

Alexander,
Inevitably, after looking long and hard for a solution to this issue, economics dictated that I had to drastically reduce the amount of public speaking that I do, so I haven’t had call to use the programs. I started Zoom this morning to check it, though, and it is demanding that I purchase a business license though when I installed it it was a free non-commercial version. That’s a dirty trick on their part, so when things pick up I’ll probably be looking for a different solution just out of principle!

I should add a big thanks to Moritz for the export marco proposal; in Powerpoint 2007 and beyond it is very easy to set up the macro. The added advantage for myself is that I can combine in a PIM the slides with other material to be used for the work.
Nevertheless, I am still looking for a Powerpoint-focused solution for other members of my team relying on this ‘evil’ program http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.09/ppt2.html

Just started using a new tool today: “Business Slide Index” (http://www.slideidex.eu).
Doesn’t allow for tagging, or any other advanced functionality—but creates a very enjoyable graphical PowerPoint browser (with full text search filter).
Using it for my “working” library of 2000 decks.
The other 2 tools, Slideboxx and Zoom, both stopped indexing after the first 45 decks, which prevented me from exploring them further (they both looked nice and capable, but if the indexing isn’t robust, that doesn’t go very far ... it might have something to do with the fact that some of my decks are IRM encrypted).
