I'm looking for a new monitor to back my electric whiteboard.
I've been using a plasma monitor (40" TV) up until now as it
has a hard front surface that can stand up to being "written on"
(with an invisible ink marker pen).

[Imagine your actions when writing on a "whiteboard"]

Most LCD (TVs) seem to have a really flimsy front surface.

I suspect the plasma's front screen is a (necessary) consequence
of the technology.  And, not essential for LCD.

Are there any offerings where this might NOT be the case?
