One challenge.
Two weeks.
Will you want to give it back? 

Promethean is challenging you to 'test drive' the new ActivBoard 500 - the very latest in multi-touch interactive whiteboard technology.

Whether you're brand new to interactive technology or are thinking of upgrading an existing system, this two week ActivBoard 500 'test drive' will give you access to an innovative and intuitive dual-mode board - bringing popular iPhone, iPad and Windows 7™ technology experiences into whole-class teaching and learning.

Combining intuitive pen and touch operability - and accommodating up to four users at the board at any one time - the ActivBoard 500 means you don't have to choose between pen or touch operated systems anymore. Use touch and real world hand gestures (tap, flick, swipe, pinch, rotate) for easy navigation or manipulation of content or seamlessly switch to the signature ActivPen to write, draw or carry out precision tasks.

To take part in the challenge simply email the following details to Sharyn.Gaskell@VirtueTechnologies.co.uk
