IWBUsers.com - International Interactive whiteboard user forum - users of all brands are welcome to share lesson activites between teachers for all types of subjects and schools.

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.
