Hello,
I'm looking for a presentation application running my powerdot slides.
A friend of mine uses Keynote (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keynote_(presentation_software)
) which is only avalible for powerpoint presentations on mac.
Keynote brings nice features like keynotes which are only visible
for the speaker on his laptop or the current and the next slide are
shown at the same time on the speakers laptop. Does anyone knows an
appropiate tool which at least has the "current & next slide"-
feature and runs under XP?

I cannot help with XP software, but
if you can at least borrow a mac to do the presentation, then you may
consider using the free PDFtoKeynote program. Although I've never used
it, it is supposed to convert the pdf slides - such as those of your
powerdot document - into Keynote slides. You should be able to find it
on versiontracker.com.
I use the pdf produced by powerdot directly, and use Skim (another
piece of free software) to display the presentation. I don't use a
"presenter's display", of the kind you refer to, and I tend to avoid
Adobe software, but since you use XP probably the easiest solution is
to use Adobe Reader - again, I don't know, but it *may* include the
feature you want.
