Give-mio and Mimio - what a great low cost whiteboard alternative !

Had a Mimio rep. drop in at Greenbush yesterday to show us their Mimio hardware, I was very impressed - we have SMARTboards and ActiveBoards - but for the price of the MImio ($500) I couldnt believe I had not seen one in a classroom yet (compared to around $3000 for the smart & active boards). You basically attach (with suction cups or a clap (I recommend the clamp)) to ANY whiteboard and (with your projector) turns your whiteboard into and interactive whiteboard (Its much more like the Promethean - uses a stylus - except its MUCH cheaper).

So if you have a whiteboard, a projector and want the features of a Promethean activeboard without paying $3000 for it - you might check them out http://www.mimio.com. We are getting a few at Greenbush !
