News - IWB News Sun, 21 Sep 2008 22:51:18 +0100 http://www.iwbusers.com/iwb-news/new-budget-smart-board-v280-released-in-india.html SMART Technologies has launched a new SMART Board in the Indian market that should be priced 30% lower than ordinary SMART Board models. Most remarkable with this release is that this SMART Board is PEN driven - yes - hard surface and uses a pen to operate. The SMART Board V280 interactive whiteboard uses SMART’s patented DViT™ (Digital Vision Touch) technology for the first time in a front-projection, pen-only system. “Technology can help close the digital divide by providing access to a 21st-century education. The SMART Board V280 interactive whiteboard offers a viable option for areas of the world that want the benefits of SMART’s award-winning products at a more affordable cost,” commented Nancy Knowlton, SMART’s CEO. In India the price is set to RS 90 000 - not really interesting to convert to Dollars since the ordinary Interactive whiteboards are much more expensive there compared to US / UK / European market.
