Best software for presenting beamer-produced PDFs?

[sino...@gmail.com]

I usually use powerpoint for my slide presentations, but I am trying
to migrate to beamer. One of the few things I really miss about
powerpoint, however, is the Presenter View: the projector display gets
a full-screen slide but at the same time the laptop display has a
smaller version of the slide plus nifty tools like a stopwatch and a
scrollable outline view of all slides, which allows you to, e.g.,
search around for a particular desired slide to jump to without
changing the projector display. Is there any PDF viewer software
available that has something comparable?

Many thanks,

Roger

Then you will start to miss things when in powerpoint. :-)

Ways to keep time are available.

Well, that is really darn cool. Doesn't really have the multi-monitor
effects I was looking for that Powerpoint has, but thanks for pointing
me to it, I'll use it.
