Wacom bamboo stylus for Ipad

This is the wacom bamboo stylus for the Ipad. I was able to finally get one of these and review it. As for now it is my favorite stylus for the Ipad. A few things to note about this stylus:

-Very comfortable to hold

-Takes very little pressure for the ipad to detect the pen

-The nib is soft, but feels more like rubber, unlike the sponge like feel the pogo has.

-Excellent weight on it compared to any other pen I have tested.
-Does not have pressure sensitivity. Take in mind it may be wacom but it does not have that option as it is just a pen. We will have to wait for an app to provide that for us or a different style of pen.

-Pen can be customized. You can change the nib out and remove the pen clip if you wanted.

-Pen is about $30 usd on the wacom website.

All In all I really like and recommend this pen. It is soft, easy to use and I do not feel like it is going to scratch my screen at all. It reads you strokes in a variety of angles which is a huge plus if you like to sketch.

If you have any questions just ask.

Glove is just a $1 garden glove I cut the finger tips so it fit better for me.

Good review, as always...

Hope you'll get a chance to review drawing on the upcoming Super-Tablet: Samsung Series 7 Slate....

p.s.: Wacom = "Wah-Kum"

@you2449 I wish, but won't be buying anymore tablets soon :(

[MsVicious7]

Can you use the targus on a kindle fire?

[WatergazerRed]

Have you gotten the Jot Pressure sensitive pen to use with this or interested in the JaJa now of Kickstarter? I really want to use an IPad for art instead of Wacom and have been researching everything I can. A pressure sensitive pen will revolutionize the industry.

Your not that good? I think your great. I'm still stuck making stick figures and stuff.

Hi, I'm looking at a papersketch replacement: I am wondering about a touch screen display with a pen with pressure sensibility to connect to my PC/mac and operate with photoshop like a pressure tablet... does anything like this exist?

How well do these work with screen protectors?
