There are several third-party solutions that allow you to use PowerPoint presentations (in one form or another) on your PDA. Here are some we've heard of, in no particular order:

Documents to Go from DataViz comes in versions that support various palmtops including Palms. Its PowerPoint module converts PPT presentations to its own proprietary format and synchs them to your palmtop where you can view and (minimally) edit them. The basic version included free with some Palm Pilots includes the PowerPoint module.
