Tablet with Wacom?

My work wants me to find them a tablet (windows or android) that has the screen a Wacom encoder, with handwriting OCR to convert to text.

I've seen Wacom tablets (as opposed to tablet computers) for drawing, but they want a touch screen that can be used with a stylus.

Is there such a thing?

Also, this is what they pointed to me as examples of the type of thing they are looking for:

http://www.lenovo.com/products/us/tablet/thinkpad/thinkpad-tablet-2/

Neither of which say anything about Wacom.



Also, is there even decent handwriting OCR?

First thought: The person telling you what they want is clueless, and keeps saying "Wacom" because it's a well-known brand of "tablet" input devices.

Second thought: Grab any basic "notepad" app example from a web site somewhere, and modify it so it connects to a server on the computer and sends all input there. Then, just use any input method on the tablet that supports drawing, and you've got your "OCR" tablet.

I was kind of suspecting that, but it turns out that it actually does exist:

At least in laptop form at this point. Though it is supposed to exist for tablets as well.

the x230 also seems to come with handwriting recognition software.

I noticed in the review the laptop has handwriting recognition software.

I was also pointed to this:

Edit: (so I don't have a string of replies just from me)
Ok, it looks like the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1's S Pen is Wacom technology, which should work.

However, our work network is a domain, and apparently you can't join it with the Android OS. But it appears that it can access the shares, and remote desktop is an option as well. Is this correct, or is my information out of date?
