...and doesn't work with carbon paper.  :-D

Seriously, this thing makes using a Newton look like something straight out
of StarTrek by comparison.  So if I used a Boogie Board (for anything except
playing in the ocean) I have to what?  Photocopy it?  Scan it in?  Bet that
won't work.  

The only "tablets" this will kill are the headache tablets.  By the handful.

Man, do I love my Newts!

 
Shalom.
