I'm pretty sure you will be able to. Any android operating system tablet will be able to use Quick Office app and the Flyer will have hdmi out. So you should be able to presentate to your hearts desire.

Make sense. HTC Flyer will go to non-Apple IPAD 1/2 carriers to test market first. Sprint calls it a View EVO. Come in summer. Kind of late to the market. HTC Speed it up. I work hard to find out who or which company is behind this "Scribe technology" beside HTC. I meant which manufacturer or which partner.

HTC Pen is sold as an accessory for $79.99. This "Pen" technology is awesome.

I just picked up the new HTC Flyer today and had the pleasure of being the first person to open the newest tablet to hit the market. Quality, well built, solid comes to mind when holding the 7" android tablet. All of the kinks have been worked out of Android 2.3.3 and the tablet performed flawlessly unlike my Motorola Xoom which runs Android 3.0. The Android Market is more than well stocked with thousands of apps to find what you are looking for. The screen is crisp, clear and has a wide viewing angle making it a pleasure to view.
The HTC Flyer falls short on what accessories are packed with it, or lack of. The Flyer ships with no case, no headphones and, most importantly, no stylus! For $500.00 HTC should have included a case and stylus at minimum. You'll be into the Flyer well over $625.00 if you buy the stylus and a decent case. Given this price point, you must ask yourself do I want to spend $625.00+ for a 16 gig tablet running android 2.3?
In summary, the Flyer is an excellent tablet. HTC needs to include more accessories for the asking price otherwise I think the Flyer will fly no longer and be a flash in the plan in this fast growing market.
What's great about it: Rock solid quality, exquisite feel in ones hands.
What's not so great: No accessories included, such as, no stylus, no case, no earphones.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Review 9 for HTC Flyer Tablet - White

Ok, So I own an iPad (1). I purchased a Xoom, Acer and an iPad 2 and returned them all. Honeycomb is still buggy. The Xoom is too heavy and my wrist started hurting after a week. At first I didn't realize it was from holding the Xoom until I returned it for an iPad 2. The iPad 2 was light and worked faster than the first. But we didn't need two, plus I don't like the restrictions on Apple products. No Flash support is frustrating. Friends post things on Facebook all the time that just won't play on the iPad. I then returned the iPad 2 for the Acer a500. While it is more balanced and easier to hold then the Xoom, it was buggier the Xoom....foreclosures occurred frequently. And it also would wake up for seemingly no reason at all. Nice price but performance seemed loose. I then returned it for the HTC Flyer. Love the flyer. Easy to hold and the screen is crisp and easy to read. The built in browser comes set to view full web sites, which I love. However if you like to see the mobile sites it's an easy option to change in the browser settings. HTC Sense 3.0 looks and works great. No foreclosures so far and the operation is smooth, fast and crisp, Awesome!!! The built in widgets are great. You have the freedom to customize your screens to provide cool dashboards and simple quick access to apps. I really don't miss Honeycomb and will be happy to wait for future versions of Honeycomb that improve performance. I can watch movies, watch slingbox, connect remotely to my mom’s PC with PhoneMYPC, check weather, sports, Facebook, email and set alarm for work in the morning. I’m really impressed with the HTC and 7” may be my tablet size of choice. I also used it on the golf course this morning as a range finder (FreeCaddie Pro or SkyDroid). I also listed to music on Slacker and use it for navigation in the car. All this without errors, foreclosures or unsupported Flash messages. In my educated opinion, this is easily the best tablet on the market. Can’t wait to see the bigger HTC tables. I think they have the right plan. Just looking at the screens and widgets is enough to blow you away. Visually pleasing. Learn from my experience with the other options and buy this one if you’re ready. Obviously others are coming, but this one gets the 5 stars now.
What's great about it: Size, graphics, no foreclosures, fast, easy to customize!!
What's not so great: Nothing so far
I would recommend this to a friend!

I got my Flyer last Sunday and I love it! It has met all my expectations.
My top criteria for selecting a tablet was the OS. I am an Android user (HTC desire) and I wanted to do many things I'm able to do on my phone like email, reading news, watching videos and playing games on a bigger screen. Naturally I wanted the same apps and Android experience.
2nd criteria was the size. I wanted something that I can easily carry with one hand while using my other hand to operate it. My wife has an iPad and I have limited experience in handling Android tablets playing around with my colleague's GalaxyTab and demo units - Xoom, Iconia A500. I liked the Tab form factor the most.
I was left with only 2 choices, the Galaxy Tab and the Flyer. Viewsonic and Huwaei were out of the question. As the flyer has better hardware specs than the Tab and looked great in demo videos I seriously considered it. Based on reviews and demos the performance was very good, so I was willing to overlook the fact it didn't have a dual core processor. HTC sense was a plus. I knew it would be a very stable version of Android. Honeycomb is not important to me at this time because it doesn't seem to be ready for prime time. Hence I bought the Flyer.
Comparing this side by side with the Galaxy Tab, I am very happy with my purchase. Significantly better performace, looks better, and HTC sense beats Touchwhiz hands down.
HTC's Mail app is tablet friendly and much better than stock Android 2.3's. The weather app is amazing. The scrolling news widget works great. I wasn't a big HTC sense fan (I rooted my Desire without hesitation because of the phone's limited internal memory) but seeing the newest Sense on this tablet made me a big fan.
I'm satisfied with the performance and battery life. Battery was fully charged at 7am today. Spent about an hour on games, music and video. 3g on the whole day with push exchange email, gmail and news syncing, and didn't bother checking yet which apps automatically update. It's now 10pm and battery is at 20%. Really happy with that considering the poor battery life on my Desire.

Just realized I didn't even mention the pen in my post above. It's a nice to have accessory. Had a good laugh with my son last night drawing on our pictures. Tried taking down notes with the pen during a meeting but I preferred typing on the on screen keyboard. I see the potential but right now its not that great.

I have added a Flyer to my collection of tablets.
It's much better than I expected. 7" is small enough to carry around. Most apps don't use two processors, so 1.5GHz ARM A8 with NEON compares well with slower CPUs in dual core machines. The pen is fun too - good for annotating PDFs, for example.
