Hey, SMART Technologies, Sharp's Gunning For You

Grant's Perspective on ... rAVe Publications review of the Sharp 70" touchscreen monitor.

I read the review of the new Sharp PN-L702B 70" touchscreen titled Hey, SMART Technologies, Sharp's is Gunning For You.

rAVe's main point was "... the big story here is the price, $7,750 - that's less than half of what SMART charges the same sized display."* Cost is always very important, but I think another important point to consider is how many executives will actually use the technology. Large touchscreen monitors are much more intuitive than an electronic whiteboard. 

User-friendly systems will be adopted quickly. Everyone is busy, so it is much easier to get people to use a new tool if they are already relatively comfortable with the technology. As we represent Sharp products in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba I have seen clients reactions first-hand when they try the Sharp touchscreens.

Cost-effective and user-friendly makes a great combination. 

* Please note that rAVe is an American publication so the price quoted are in US dollars.
