Ever wished you could just write on your monitor instead during inspired brainstorming sessions? That is now possible with the Adesso CyberTablet M17 LCD Graphic Tablet Monitor. It looks like any other ordinary 17" LCD display until you discover that you can use the included stylus to write and draw on it anytime, anywhere very much in the same vein as a tablet PC. This translates to the ability to annotate hand-written or digitally signed e-mails. The stylus boasts over a thousand levels of pressure-sensitivity for a feeling of natural brush control. Being cordless, there won't be any pesky wires that get in the way of your work. Adesso has even included a pair of mouse buttons on the stylus itself so you can surf naturally with it without breaking a sweat. Compatible with both Mac and PC platforms, the Adesso CyberTablet M17 can support a maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024. It retails for $1,699.

Pros : Functions as tablet as well as monitor
