Title: Stylus for iPad
Post by: Rico on June 09, 2011, 07:27:44 AM
So, I'm thinking of getting a stylus for the iPad.  Anyone try one yet?  This one looks pretty nice and it's only $15.

P.S.  Now why doesn't someone make a stylus that looks like a Sonic Screwdriver?!

Scott reviewed this one way back when:

You're really going for the P.A.D.D. look and feel aren't you? Lol

Yes!  I want to try drawing and some detail stuff on my new "Padd."  Plus a stylus would cut down a lot on the fingerprint factor too.

I bought a stylus pen at Best Buy which is really cool.  I will have to give you the details when I get home because I left it on the dresser today.  It is both a stylus and a writing pen, which is convenient.

Update: My stylus pen is made by Targus.  They also make ones without the pen.  The other brand that I have seen is Rocketfish and it seems pretty nice as well.
