  Canon C60 Electronic Whiteboard: The Evolution of Education

Next up for bid is this Canon electronic whiteboard, model C60.

This is especially convenient because not only does it allow your audience to focus on your presentation but with the touch of a button they can also leave with their very own letter sized copy of your displayed work. A printer is not included but can easily be connected. This item is ideal for meetings, conferences, college lectures and brain-storming in the work-place. The current bid for it is only $25 and the auction ends on 2/16/09. Hurry and register now to get full membership access.
