Why bother spending all that hard-earned money on the iPad when you can get the iPad Dry Erase Board?
The iPad Dry Erase Board is the low-tech version of Apple's beloved tablet. It has no wires, no USB plug-ins and no cameras; in fact, this "iPad" features nothing technical at all. Instead, the board is a simple, miniature marker board in which recording anything requires the use of a marker. The cool thing is that the product design does take after the iPad's interface, but that's as authentic as it gets in terms of mimicking the tablet.
The iPad Dry Erase Board is a refreshing change from the onslaught of tablets coming out. It surely reminds people of simpler times and is currently available for purchase at UI Stencils.
