    We have them at school. If the teachers are properly educated in using them they can be great, but as far as the rumours go the Economy department shells out 5000 pounds for each set of board and projector.

    some decent links on those sites although im not looking for installers since we are installers.

    i get the feeling that you just googled them though since they are on the first page of results for interactive whiteboards lol.

    what im asking is has anyone used them/installed them or just knows whats what

    What models are you looking at?
    I've installed a fair few of these but they were mainly spec'd by the schools that had them ordered & delivered from their own educational supplier and just got us in to install them.

    Mainly SMART 600i Series Interactive Whiteboards & SMART 600 Series Dual Touch Interactive Whiteboards.

    Nice & easy to setup and use. Just have to remember to lock the settings so the kids don't fiddle.
