The Swedish product is
1. a plastic sheet formed like a sleeve (rittmuffa) cost about 25C
2. a board to insert in the sleeve (skrivebord) cost about 30$
Any ballpoint pen can be used on the sheet.
CHEAP APPROXIMATIONS:
Instead of the board one can use a mousepad
Instead of the plastic sleeves one can use any plastic sheet, at a pinch
or paper, but one will not get such a clear line usually.
The Swedish products are not driven by software. They are like paper and
pencil for the blind.
Cheers all
John
