If you're interacting with the board, your class can't see it because you're in the way. Add to that, much of the image is low to the floor, so someone's head is sure to be in the way. If you raise it higher, then you can't reach the top. In large venues like an auditorium, they aren't big enough to be seen clearly from a distance.

There are a handful of the previous generation in my university, and most aren't used. The few that are used undoubtedly seem more useful to the faculty than the students who need to see what they are presenting.

I'm not a Hitachi hater, they make some annotation devices like Starboards too. These are like stylus/touch panel monitors that can be used as an input into your AV system and routed to your projector or other display. In a venue for more than just a few students that's the better route. In a small venue with just a few participants that could gather around, a large flat panel display with a touch panel overlay like a Smart Actalyst would still be a better solution.]]>Jul 31st 2008 2:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/Jul 31st 2008 9:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/Jul 30th 2008 7:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/30/hitachi-starboard-fx-77-duo-white-board-gets-demoed-on-video/
2. Comment reading is certainly optional. Exercise some restraint and sheath your scrolling finger.
