Right,
and graphics tablets as an input device are mostly independent of the 
whiteboard application itself.  I can use a mouse to scribble on 'wb' or 
I can use my Wacom driver or I can use the e-beam mouse.  So the input 
device (as a topic of discussion) is separate from the issue of the 
software infrastructure to share our scribbling...
