1. I haven't tried it yet.  The ideal setup would be 20 wireless mice.  Just pass them out like papers when you're ready for the activity.  But you could save money with wired mice and USB hubs.  Also, how many actual mice are supported depends on the capabilities of your computer and its operating system.  If budget is a concern or lots of mice aren't supported, then you'd have groups of a few kids taking turns around one mouse per group.  Still better than the one-at-a-time use of the other options.  In the "old days," I would project the computer image on the (non-smart) whiteboard and have kids come up and write on the image with regular whiteboard markers.  You couldn't save it, but you could have many kids up at once.  And calibration was much easier.
2. I just found out about a very interesting free program that might be a good thing to use along with - or instead of - a smartboard.  It is an add-in program that works inside Powerpoint.  basically, it allows you to hook up multiple mice to one computer.  Then, the teacher creates quiz slides inside the presentation.  Kids, all AT THE SAME TIME, click on the answers.  The computer then gives a class score on the answers.
This is better than a smartboard because it involves the whole class at once, as opposed to one at a time.  The cost savings of 20 mice vs. one Smartboard is also pretty significant as well.  It's called "Microsoft Mouse Mischief," works with Powerpoint 2007 and 2010, and it's a free download.  I'm just beginning to work with it, and I'm curious as to what other people might think.

3. This year, I have been using Microsoft OneNote with a Smartboard and a drawing tablet.  All of our class notes and worksheets are integrated in a very organized way.  I can call on students to fill in answers on the board, and it all gets saved for next time.  This has revolutionized a lot of what happens in my classroom without requiring me to drive myself crazy learning something totally new.  You probably already have OneNote on your computer.  I submitted my 4th grade whiteboard files, which you can look at by pasting this number into the search box above:
