Well I am using a Smart Airliner Slate which is like a portable Smart  
Boatf based on a Wacom Graphire 6x8.

This model connects to my PC desktop via Bluetooth and I use a PC  
projector to display the desktop for my students.  It's basically a  
remote mouse with a magnetic pen that can hover over the desktop or  
write on a pen app like Smart Notebook or Xournal.

I use it instead of a Smart Board to give notes I can export to a  
PDF.  I also make screencasts of my classes for YouTube this way.  My  
only problem is the mouse is too sensitive even after turning down the  
sensitivity from pref/mouse....
