LONG BEACH, Calif. – June 10, 2013 – Epson, the number-one selling projector brand worldwide1, is now offering the BrightLink Solo™ Interactive Module for $99 through the Brighter Futures® program, a unique sales and support initiative available specifically for schools. The BrightLink Solo is an innovative, cost-effective classroom tool that provides an easy solution for integrating interactive capabilities with any existing projector, while eliminating the need to purchase and install dedicated interactive whiteboards (IWB).
