External display? I can't find the thread... sorry...

I am searching for a thread, I can't find it, sorry if I ask for something which was already asked and replied...

I remember having read something about connecting (or not connecting) an external display for PPT presentations.
As EE does not have HDMI nor SVGA ports, I wonder how this could be done.
One of my children will become a doctor in a few months and he seems to be impressed with the Edge.

I want to buy him (choose one) notebook-netbook-edge-tablet for his graduation, but as he is teaching Pharmacology as an assistant professor at the School of Medicine, he frequently needs to prepare Powerpoint presentations in big displays or TVs, as classrooms are quite big.

He has been very interested in the Edge abilities, such as note-taking, book-reading, audio-recording, movie-watching, PDF-annotating, music-listening and lotsof-whatevering offered by this device. He takes my notebook when he needs it, but he is wondering to which extent an Edge could suit all his needs, such as everything the EE does, plus connecting to an external TV or monitor.

I don't know what to say. Remember someone talked about this many months ago, but I can't find the information.

Has anyone done this (PPT presentations sent from the Edge, using Docs-to-Go or Office Suite, to an external screen)?

Thanks in advance.
