RE: New tool wars! WAS: Pinsky poem in the Atlantic "Jar of Pens"

["Bulloch, Scott" <scott -dot- bulloch -at- sap -dot- com>]

Our group has a Mimio. The one we have ran around $300-400, give or take, I
think. 

I haven't used it extensively, but from my experience with it, it is a
useful tool. You can use it to capture whiteboarding as you write, you can
use it with Netmeeting's whiteboard feature, and perhaps its coolest use: if
you've got a projected image of your screen on the wall, you can use a
special Mimio nib and "mouse around" on the projected image.
