Looking for an piece of hardware

Hi

dont know what the hardware is called but i saw it for sale a few years ago
and it was an a4 sized tablet that allowed you to write onto a normal a4 pad
on one side and it was captured through a digital pen and then you could hot
sync it to your pc. Allowed the user to make notes in meetings and have them
on the pc and distributed in no time flat. I am sure it was IBM but cant be
100% sure - any ideas on what it was and if its still available as I really
need exactly this now .

Cheers

I think you are thinking of a tablet sold under the Cross Pen brand
here in the USA, and I never say A4, just 8.5x11 and a notepad size.
I have

Here's one on ebay;

The people I talked to said it was great but had one shortcomming that
made unusable for them; The tablet had no way to know what page of
your pad you were writting on. You had to keep track every time you
flipped the page.
