Is the table or the surface where the MB-Air is resting metallic? wood? plastic?
Is the projector yours?
I have not experience the other problems while using a white Mac Book, not even the slow down.

Subject: [applekeynote] MacBook Air: 3. trackpad interference with projector
This is the third of three comments about using Keynote with a MacBook Air.
In normal use the large trackpad on the MacBook Air works fine.
However, I have found that when the computer is connected to a
videoprojector there is some sort of electrical interference that
makes it very difficult to place the cursor exactly. Instead of
moving smoothly as I move my finger it jerks around almost
uncontrollably. Although this doesn't matter during a presentation,
because I don't usually use the trackpad during a presentation, it
does matter at the start. I have found an easy solution, however,
that seem to work perfectly on my computer. If I touch the computer
with my left hand at the left of the trackpad, while manipulating the
trackpad with the right hand (a left-handed person would doubtless do
it the otrher way around), the trackpad becomes perfectly stable and
as I don't need my left hand for anything else while I'm using the
trackpad that seems, at least for the moment to be the complete
solution.
