While I can see the coolness with flatscreens and the overlay, to me that is a limited size for showing an entire classroom. The more and more that I watch people use the smart board idea, or the overlay in this case, the more and more I like the interactive wireless tablets. Maybe I am missing something with the flatscreens that can't be solved with a super-bright projector. As far as the rest of the ideas, the only other thing that I would question would be the netbook over a full-powered notebook. Can a netbook keep up doing the pod/vodcasts or are there limitations?
Just my techie view.
