Whiteboarding with drawing tablets

Type of drawing tablet

Any type of drawing tablet works for whiteboarding.

However, drawing tablets with screens, such as pen displays and standalone devices, work better in my experience. It feels more natural to see what you are whiteboarding on the screen as you draw.
