Dear colleagues 
There are calls from some quarters at my school to put electronic whiteboards in as many class rooms as possible. 
After the Business Manager recovered from his heart attack, he has asked me to investigate some cheaper alternatives. 
I have read about ways to convert standard whiteboards into electronic ones by using a special type of projector or a special gadget you can attach to a standard whiteboard. I have the brochures but ...
As anyone else used or tested such a device at their school? 
If so, what are comparative results regarding performance, visibility, ease of use etc? 
Thanks for your assistance.
