Hello,
For talks/presentations/lectures, I've been using mathematica as an improvement over conventional presentation software. At least, I believe it is an improvement.

To utilize dynamic content, I can't roam away from my laptop. However, remote "clickers" allow presenters using conventional  software more freedom of movement and a more natural presentation style.

Has anyone heard of an app which would allow me to pull sliders, rotate graphics, point and click with a tablet device or touch-screen phone?

There are apps that turn such handheld devices into "clickers". But, interacting with a slide show mathematica presentation would need to do more.

Two things come to mind (though I have neither, nor any experience
therewith):

- the Logitech MX Air mouse
- the Logitech Touchmouse app for iPhone/iPad

Thanks for the suggestion Yves,
I have the airmouse app. It works fine as a mouse.  But, I would need to turn and face the screen to move the mouse/sliders/graphics.  I think I would need to see the slideshow slide on my touchscreen device.

I'll experiment with a remote desktop app, if anyone is interested I'll report how useful it is for mathematica slideshow presentations.
