Graphics Tablets
My wife really likes the responsiveness of her Galaxy Tab but she's always disappointed with the lack of software. She is so used to her standard bevy of illustration tools... That said, Bruce - you can connect your tablet directly to dropbox with some apps. So if you sketch something up, at least on the iPad, you can export direct to your dropbox folder and sync up.
She recently picked up a Surface Pro and she loves it. This is an expensive option but is pretty much a portable PC with a pressure sensitive pen. Could even run Storyline on it if you wanted to.
The Wacom tabs are great. It takes some getting used to drawing in one space and seeing it in another. If you wanted to draw directly onto the tablet space, the Cintiq series from Wacom are fantastic (and really expensive). A less expensive alternative that is reviewed really well comes from Monoprice. Under $400 for a draw on display is a fantastic deal. So much so that they're on backorder until March.
