Keynote - A solid presntation application

Well, yes and no.
You can have the workspace with notes and outline viewed on your powerbook screen while having the slides being shown on a second screen (Note this depends also on the graphic capabilities of your computer. I think you would need a Powerbook and I'm not sure all PBs cut it).

However, You cannot work in the app while displaying slides in this way. It is presentation mode on your own "speakers" screen as well.

For what you appear to be wanting, you would need a freeze feature that is available on some projectors, where they can hold the slide shown, regardless of what video data the computer emits at the moment. I've used such a feature a few times for on the fly reorganising of slide order without letting the audience see what I'm doing. <freeze, stop presentation and reorder, go to correct slide, start presentation, unfreeze>

Such a feature is completely independent of KeyNote's ability to present a "speakers note screeen" in addition to the slide show shown to the audience.

Hope this was a clear and useful answer. I'm way past midnight here and needs some sleep.
