QuirkLogic has been gaining positive press with their 42-inch smart whiteboard that utilizes E Ink technology. You can draw on it or take notes on existing PDF documents and the whole system works in conjunction with the companies connected-writer system, anything you draw on the display with the stylus will be instantly stored for retrieval later and is stored in the cloud. QuirkLogic has just announced that pre-orders are opening soon and the product will be available in July.
This device will ship with the 42 inch e-paper display and it weighs 2lbs. It comes with a mount for the wall or you can get the standalone tower. The battery will give you around 16 hours of constant use, so you likely will need to have a permanent connection to a wall outlet.
