I try to think of those things as nice-to-haves. My pitch is just me, looking right into your eyes, being persuasive for about 30 seconds. When I was pitching a consumer app I'd have a prototype running on my phone, and I'd just hand it to the person after I stopped talking.

I have a powerpoint and pdf of my deck on a thumb-drive, but I almost never use them (if anything, I'll email them to the person as a followup after we speak). I once met a guy who had a QR-code on his business card which linked directly to a zip file with his business-plan, pitch deck, etc. I thought that was pretty cool.
