I am trying to use my iPad (1st gen) for note-taking so I would like to get a stylus instead of using my fingers. Is there anyone with the experience would recommend a stylus for me? Thanks.

wacom stylus for ipad

I've tried Alupen just now and it seems perfectly working with my iPad 2. The price for it is RM99.00 available at All IT Hypermart.

I have just ordered a cheap stylus , no brand rubber tipped from an online wholesale website, probably gonna get it next week cost me less than Rm25 plus shipping to Malaysia...

I bought a Dagi stylus from Taiwan online store. I use it for painting. USD 23 Not satisfy at all.

I m looking for Kensington , stylus can fill with Parker ink, but too bad, I cant find it in malaysia

U can get alupen in all IT? I searched all around kl and can't find it. Finally bought it from former. Rm90. Very nice stylus. One of the best from reviews all around.

I'am using Griffin stylus for iPad! It's pretty good! I like it!

Are they good enough to do note-taking? 'Coz some of the stylus are suitable for painting (as they have bigger tips) but not that comfortable for writing.

Sigh. I was about to DIY a stylus but I can't get a conductive foam.

Thanks.

bought a cheap stylus from garage sale... not satisfied.... very sticky feeling and need to press hard on it.... ended up buying targus stylus from all IT, cost RM69... works like a charm!

in lowyat, you can get in about rm35/pcs

I got, and I've made 2, not perfect, but it's free =p

enlighten me please. thank you! hunting for a stylus now too!thank you!

should it be difficult to use due to multi touch, example when you write your palm with on the screen not?

AluPen is great and the finishing makes it look really classy too.

Quite difficult to find those hot colors because apparently the supplier side are out of stocks (unless the shop still have ready stocks for it).

RM90 for a stylus?

Hehe worth every penny of it

I agreed with u. Just bought Targus stylus from C-Zone in Digital Mall,same cost.
Because i am using Bamboo Paper for note-taking very frequent.
This stuff is highly recommended, value for your money!

Same question ... isn't it difficult to write on the iPad with those pen since you will be resting your side of the palm on the iPad screen ... then the multi-touch will take effect and nothing will write on the screen ....

how do you overcome this problem ?

i use pogo sketch... not good .. need press hard ... and cant write very detil wors

regardless what positive post here, it's pita to 'really' take note using ipad because 2 issues (apart trying to write on ipad is slow...).

multi touch - ur hand have to 'float' cause only only the tip is touch due to multitouch. wont work if need to write alot.

pen- the rubberish tip is like trying to write using eraser...

cheers..

Just dont get pogo sketch ..
it isn't that good ..
srry pogo .

Yes, this is one problem faced by many, so hopefully the app developer might come up with something that could help resolve the problem for those who rest their palms on the screen.

Some of the note taking app featuring palm protection.

such as? care to share?

wear a glove.

How about Goopo II? Anyone tried before?

Finally, I got my cap ayam ipad/ipad2 stylus from Hong Kong, that only cost me USD$1.70 including shipping. (2 weeks waiting time)

It's a rubber tip stylus, the only cons is, you need to put a little pressure to get it to work.

other than that, it's a good stylus because of the cheap price

so far any1 used this i goopo stylus?
how is that?

I got a Kensington one from Machines in Pavilion KL. Works great and if the rubber nib has worn out it can be used as a pen using Parker refills. i think about RM90 for the stylus. but non the least great stuff.

or is it Epi Center. i forgot but its one of those "official" apple shops in Pavilion

i am using ozaki pen, nice ler.

I am using 3M Smart Pen. So far so good. I used it everyday for note taking + annotate PDF.

Only RM70 from bruceleestore http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=1696409&hl=

Definitely much better than those china stylus

I am getting this one... should arrive next week...
http://www.i-goopo.com/pro.asp?pid=257&id=1812

I found the HTC capacitive Stylus is very good and easy to use, I think in the lowyat garage sales under mobile phones and accessories got people selling.

I jz got my ozaki iStroke L+

How is the wacom stylus performance ?

Alu pen . very good

Anyone knows which brand of stylus is best for ipad2?

Main usage: to write notes and image drawing.

Where to buy them?

This should be the best brand for Stylus I believe

http://www.wacom.com/en/Products/BambooStylus.aspx

I have bought 2 Wacom Tablet so far.. They are the pioneer in the market for artist drawing board

how much isit bro ?

Well u definitely wont get the same feeling as writing with a pen on a piece of paper because we were doing it for years and its not easy to shake that feeling and expected to be comfortable right away after replacing it with a stylus.

If i were to recommend, i would say Targus Stylus. RM69 i think from Machines.

Im using it now and its really good, for the money at least

I have to agree that Targus Stylus is good and responsive, just bought one at Machine Midvalley just a moment ago. I don't use much actually, just for my 2 years old daughter playing her coloring apps..lol. I have a Pogo Stick actually and it's really sucks, have to press a lil on the screen to use and it scratch my Screen Protector.

I think Note Plus is the best taking note apps and u dont have to use glove cause it will detect ur hand.

agreed, pogo stick not so nice...

how bout this??

I want this...

Yes. I confirm that this sylus 100% Failz. I want to cry as I paid about RM 80 for it when it first launch

I also go the Fling (analogue joystick to stick on iPad) from them though and that one is quit brialliant

i also got them fling man...pity racing games doesnt support them...

tried one shanzai version of Targus Stylus, very sensitive indeed. Cost less than RM10 only.

Not sure if i can share the link to the website.

anyone selling them? targus stylus i mean...

I think u can buy at machine

Machines are selling at RM69, bought mine last month and it's very responsive.

guys, make sure to TEST the stylus on the spot before buying it

i just purchased a cheap stylus from LYN forum... 13 bucks include postage
But it sucks... need to apply lots of pressure to get it detected (dont even have screen protector on yet)

for mine, need to apply A LOT MORE pressure than how i would normally write using a pencil/pen... quite uncomfortable when need to use much

this one might as well home made version... lol

how to test stylus if buy online?

Ask seller allow u to remote into his/her iPad, ask seller write on screen with stylus, check out and decide which to buy.

Apply above technique with webcam - ipad, facetime to ipad or whatever u can think of.

I am selling at RM30... bugijun... if you wanna try then you have to come prepare with RM30 cos for sure you will buy it... lol... it has a roller pen as well... so value for money....

Added on September 25, 2011, 2:47 pmif wan buy expansive one.. go to applestore or mac store... you can test it out... i tried the one i am selling it has same responsiveness with the Power Support brand... but mine cheaper with roller pen also.. hehe...

ask MSpot he got one and others too... but for them soon when i post it out to them.. hehe..

Just bought a stylus brand Targus and i have to say tht i am not impress with the performance. I dont know whether its the stylus itself of my screen protector. I bought the screen protector n the stylus a few hours ago at machine bukit tinggi. I think the screen protector brand is Power support An, from Japan. It really good but when i get bk home, the stylus need to press a lil harder. Now im thinking of selling this One and get a Anodit jot brand type of stylus

Funny, the Targus Stylus works flawlessly with my SP which came with the Switcheasy Canvas(I assumed it's a cheap SP). The Targus stylus cost me rm69, you sure you bought the same model as per price?

Yup. I actually want to buy the capcase brand of screen protector but since the seller recommend the Power Support An, i just grab it. Cost me RM123 and the stylus RM69. I didnt test on the spot. Damn. And since i really want to use it as a note taking, its no use cause my writing suddenly become worst when using this stylus. Plus, need a little more pressure than what i saw ppl using this stylus on utube.

Not sure it's your SP is the cause but indeed you don't have to press hard on it while using, just lightly touch on the screen and it will respond. You should try it on spot coz machine staff will open the box and let you test the stylus as what I did at Machine Mid Valley.

i think you take out your sp and then try your stylus.. most likely its the sp.. but i may not think its the sp....i have a cheap matte sp and the stylus i am selling work flawlessly... hhehhee...and its only RM30 with a roller pen

I use the 3M not so nice wanted something sharp like pen any recommendation?

u cant get sharp... cos it is not enuf surface for capacitive to work... hehe..

Where's ur shop

i m using this


2USD >.< cant comment much

I'm using this too! it's awesome for this price i'm paying. heheeLooks like my Targus Stylus but the price....hmm....

I'm using this too! it's awesome for this price i'm paying. hehee
i bought few

where to get the above stylus ah? thanks

2usd only? meaning less then rm10 right?

where to get?

Anyone ever mention Adonit Pro Jot here?



Supported this project in Kickstarter and just got my unit this week.. Work wonderfully with or without screen protectors

how much did it cost you? very keen to get one....

U can find it at machine Sunway pyramid.

I think i saw machine bukit tinggi selling this. Look nicer

Well, I'm a backer for this Jot Pro project at Kickstarter.com . I don't think they have started distributing them to Stores worldwide. You are able to order one via amazon.com though. Paid 45USD for 2 units of this, excluding postage fee.

Link to Adonit Jot Pro Kickstarter page

The Jot Pro is a pretty good one. Just got it today in the mail.

For those who have the Adonit Jot Pro, does the grip makes a lot of difference? Thinking of getting the regular or the Pro version. Magnet doesn't matter to me, grip might, and colours for pro is so much better Also, I read that the constant clicking noise due to the glass can get really annoying; what's your take?

I have the Jot Pro, cant really notice the grip difference. But I dont have the normal Jot to compare with, so dont take my word for it. I suppose just see what kind of pens you'd like to use. Ones with grip or not. Since it carries over. Glass tapping can get annoying at times. But its still bearable IMO.

Thanks. I just ordered the regular Jot. Hopefully the tapping doesn't turn out to be too bad in classroom usage.

About the Jot Pro, does the glass thing at the pen tip easily separate by some force?

looks fragile to take apart from video..

From what I read it's actually pretty sturdy. Should not come off under any reasonable conditions. Although they do have some faulty batches - which they are very willing to replace.

hmm..replaceable means sent back to the seller...

Need to reconsider bout this product... Unless someone can show a video how tough is that tip thing.

They'll send you a new tip. No need to send the Jot back.

thanx for the video!..

Now it convince me totally....

Saw the Japan did multiples experiment with DIY pen tip. It's cool to see it become a proper pen like this.

In case anyone else is interested, I ordered mine from an Australian company - http://www.thestyluscompany.com/shop/adonit

They have better international shipping rates. Plenty of styli to choose from!

How long it would shipping to your house?

The shipping fees is alot cheaper than the US one..

Roughly RM60plus if order from this Aussie Site , rite ?

They've got air and sea. I chose air, but my order is still processing. Was told that it should reach within 1 to 2 weeks. They're restocking on the Jot Pro as well, so give you choices. Though I think they just raised their price by like $0.90

Also, they have the coupon code 10THANKYOU for October. 10% off order total.

just placed order for my adonit...really hope its good.. =D

anyone doing a bulk?

Holding back my recommendation for The Stylus Company. Was intially told to expect a shipping time of 5-7 business days (to America), but now am told 7-10 days. Also told only to contact them for relevant procedures if it's not received by the 21st business day. Customer service isn't the most helpful out there.

Read good things about Adonit's own customer service though.

no merchant carrying this is malaysia?

Where u get it?

guys,

if you looking at stylus, can pm me

thanks

hi all,u can get more cheaper stylus pen from here
