Magic Whiteboard is pretty cool too:

It's basically a roll of big white sheets that stick to walls without adhesive. They're also erasable/reusable.
Took off after appearing on Dragon's Den (a TV show where entrepreneurs pitch their ideas to investors):

- quesera 14y agoThose are great if you're bunkered down in a hotel conference room or something, but they really don't compare to a proper whiteboard. Erasure, in particular, but also size and wall imperfections..
- miles 14y agoOf course, they're no match for a permanent whiteboard - just another neat tool for startups who present in random places. The article also mentioned that there's now a clear version of IdeaPaint, which is great news: http://www.ideapaint.com/work/products/#ideapaint http://www.ideapaint.com/work/products/#ideapaint
- quesera 14y agoYep, still grossly expensive though. $225 for 50 square feet compares favorably to high quality whiteboards, but not to paint. Yes, high tech engineered polymer coating, I know. :)
- nkurz 14y agoIt's less than half that price at Lowe's Hardware: 8 oz (10 sq ft) = $30 17 oz (20 sq ft) = $50 29 oz (40 sq ft) = $100 Free shipping on the larger two sizes. I haven't used it yet, but I'm about to go to Sherwin Williams to get the recommended primer to stainless so I can paint whiteboards on the front of commercial freezer doors.
- gwillen 14y agoI don't know if the stuff I mentioned upthread, made by 3M, is the same stuff as magic whiteboard, but I find that it erases just fine, and is stiff and slick enough to make wall surface texture not a problem.
