we're pitching for a new account and want to send an ipad pre-loaded with a presentation, what is the best way to have video content? We've tried an interactive pdf (wont play video on ipad) and the folio builder feature in Indesign but its not really what we want (more for adding app store).

Load the movie onto the iPad normally. :)
- e.g. use iTunesmonospaced
- or link to the video which resides on YouTubemonospaced

Keynote?

There are numerous apps and alternative browsers (some better than others) that will let you save websites locally if you try that. Not sure how they work with video content.
Be a lot easier to do on an Android tablet... or even a Surface Pro. Accessible file systems can be useful.

http://www.kioskproapp.com/ - we use that app all the time. Will let you do anything you can on a website, and load any file you can play on a browser.

Nice suggestion. Looking at it myself now.ETM - it's pretty flexible, you can even setup a repository and update your site at a distance.zarkonite

"Sure he's not better off with the Surface Pro?"
-monospacedYour sarcasm, as usual, is trite. It's a valid suggestion for two reasons:
1: Being an open file system, unlike RT, is rather useful ,though I doubt you've used one. Simple contact would likely cause you to burst into flames.
2: Many people are curious, and I would guess if they are sending the tablet pre-loaded, it's a gift. Why not send something more interesting that another iPad, which most people have already. If they hate it (Android or Surface), they'll be glad they didn't pay for it. lol- I wasn't being sarcastic, I was asking a question. And you don't have to be a dick about it.monospaced
- lol No one who 'knows' you here would think that wasn't sarcasm.ETM

also jailbreak that puppy and use iconoclasm and shrink to make the first page a 1 icon layout so they know what to do as soon as it unlocks.

We use iBooks Author for this.
- Impossible without an open file system like the Surface Pro, though i doubt you've ever used one.monospaced
