Default Targus stylus

I got the targus stylus and it works on the iPad and galaxy s but struggles with the galaxy tab. I'm a bit disappointed. Must be a different kind of capacitive screen. Writing with it on the iPad is like writing on paper. Very smooth and quick to get used to.

Anyone had any better luck with styli on the g tab?

Got any old HDD bags laying around?

If you wrap a cut off of it around the end of a pen you have a cheap stylus and it works brilliantly on my legend :P

It's also a very smooth plastic so I haven't had it bog down on me at all.

Default Dagi stylus

I ordered a Dagi stylus after seeing a demo on a Galaxy Tab that made it look smooth. There's a few different models, so I'm hoping they have catered to the slightly different capacitive screen on the Galaxy to that of other devices.

If it was a faked video I have a stylus for my iPad.

He means antistatic plastic bags used to protect sensitive electronics,
usually silver or silvery like appearance

I just tried with the top of a microscrewdrive, it works surprisingly well

thanks 50-3 for the tip

The foam tipped ones I tried in the shops were all rubbish. Not even worth a £.
