Woot - I finally got a beta account to try out Powtoon. It took about a week, but it was well worth the wait. Yes, it is very cool, and pretty intuitive with a friendly user-interface. There are still glitches and limitations (like not being able to add an image from computer, only from online source, or not yet being able to publish to Youtube) but overall, this has a LOT of potential. I don't think of this so much as a replacement to powerpoint and definitely, but rather something to help to make a Prezi better.
Powtoon seems like a great way to incorporate a short movie, possibly with many quick facts and a voice-over for a portion of an existing Prezi. I don't see this as any sort of replacement... yet.... because it only lets you do a continuous movie. You don't have the option to flip through slides and talk about things in more detail.
The other site worth mentioning today is 19Pencils. You can see a Powtoon about 19pencils HERE
