Did the iPad and Doceri kill the Smartboard?

At a fraction of the cost of an electronic board, Doceri allows you to move freely about the room, allowing you to easily monitor students, ensuring that they are on task and meeting educational objectives.

The recording feature is very nice! Doceri states, "The playback feature simulates the act of writing and drawing of prerecorded material, eliminating your need to hover in front of the board, blocking it from view. Watching ideas unfold through the act of handwriting and drawing is compelling. Research suggests that handwriting promotes cognitive development. In the computer age handwriting is in decline. Doceri brings handwriting back into the digital age, allowing for the electronic authoring of handwritten materials. Doceri keeps the skill of handwriting alive, but now with undo/redo and edit capabilities that enhance the process."
What do you think? Has the iPad and Doceri killed the Smartboard?
