Using uBoard with MS Tablet functions

You may recall that uBoard is recognised as a 'native' Microsoft tablet device which means that you can access all the excellent software functions that Microsoft include in their tablet package.
The first tablet function that people tend to use is handwriting recognition. Basically, you can handwrite on the screen and it is turned into typed text as you go! The latest version of this is very, very good, and easily handles my 'old school' cursive handwriting. This is very handy and can be used for taking notes, entering a web address in a form, signing a digital document, annotating a document neatly - a multitude of uses.


MS Vista also allows this functionality, but MS Windows 7 is the best. uBoard is the only interactive whiteboard able to access this software.
