So, you thought the iRex iLiad carried a bit of heft around the price tag, eh? Well check out this rugged $3,995
MedTab ET-100 E Ink tablet from Emano Tec. Full specs:

The MedTab is obviously is not designed for you to consume your favorite Michael Crichton novels on it; rather, it's made for the technology-inclined hospital staff who needs to access information from anywhere in a clinic. And the good news: should you plan to buy more than 50 devices, you'll get a 50% discount ($2,000/unit).
