try the adonit jot, its by far the best capacitive stylus I have used. Very Smooth control and optional rubber grip make it awesome to use.

Where to buy? Do you need a screen protector with a stylus?

This is the absolute best stylus for note taking I have encountered. Bar none.
Login here.
Click on blue BUY button in the upper right corner.
That should do it?
To the best of my knowledge, the only screen protector, so far, reported to block the Jot is Ghost Armor.
My dry apply generic one works fine.

Yep its not the cheapest stylus but for $35 and $45 for the pro (shipping included) it well worth the investment if your really into taking hand written notes or drawing
Seems like a really neat idea to make a transparent capacitive surface so you know where you're writing. Although looks like it might snap easily if you forget the cap.
They posted a video showing how hard it is to pull it off
It's both in the Adonit Jot thread and on their youtube site..
Any cheaper solution? I was thinkinh th amcase from amazon at 9.98 with the 2n1 pen and prime shipping. Reviews seems good.

trust me its worth the investment, before the adonit i had bought 3 styli each about $12 and none was good enough.
Are there any really good note taking apps to work with this in handwriting mode though, the bamboo stylus works well on the iPad because there is a proper app to go with it, I have wasted so many hours trying to find something that actually works with handwriting & converts to usable text. If this stylus is so good & accurate then what is the best way to capture handwritten notes that can be converted to text ?
Having bought 3 stylus' so far and none being to my liking...I just purchased the Jot...I hope it's what you say it is.

I'm still "playing" with SuperNote finding most useful.
CNET has a video on making a stylus with a pen a bit of sponge and a paperclip.

The design is good. The cap screws on both ends, with a big enough thread not to strip easily, and not to lose. It works better on slightly larger letters, so writing large letters and auto-shrinking seems to work great. Otherwise, pinch zoom to write larger and shrink back to view would also be ideal, like ezpdf.
I like my Jot. Good luck.
I purchased this one. Have yet to use it yet, but it is getting good reviews. Cheap too.

I have had an Acase gen 2 stylus and after about a month or a little less the rubber tip began to crack. It lost if rigidity and now is almost useless to write. You have to mush too hard for it to make good enough contact and work.
I picked up a DAGi P504 and it was good, but after a few days it simply stopped working. Very strange.
I recently received a Adonit Jot, and it is the best of the bunch. But I dropped it on day four and the disk on the end split in half. Turns out it is two thin disk glued together with some metallic material in between. I have read that this has happened to others as well. You have to buy a two pack of replacement disk for $8 plus almost $6 for shipping. I'm going to try ans glue it back together and see if I can get it working again with out having to replace it. At least the **** didn't break then I'd have to replace it. Just so you know what you may get into.
Still the Jot is the best option out there at the moment and worth every penny id I don't have to keep replacing the disks every week.

I just called them to confirm and they told me it does open properly with the case on. And paying 24.99 for a crystal case is rediculous.

I've seen those. What I'm more referring to is comparing it with and without the case. Same picture, two phones (or photoshopped together). Just to give a bit of scale to it

I just got mine the other day from eBay, and the front face doesn't fit all the way on or stay on. I'm going to have to return it and find another one.
I've finally tested this case for more than 10 minutes and I really hate the fact that the edges are not beveled in, making it extremely hard to use my fingers to press the softkeys on the screen, onscreen scrolling and some slight awkwardness when pressing the outside buttons.
Mine was also made of white plastic, so it has this ugly white lip around the edges.
After removing my BodyGuardz skin, the case fits snugly and is very hard to remove (I accidentally cracked the lower piece while removing)
Oh well, you get what you pay for. Time to read up on Seidio cases
http://www.wirelessaccessories.com/... 8925 - TyTN II - Kaiser&sfid=134039&c=164107
I've used these for my last 2 devices. I don't recommend the rubberized as they scrape up easy. While you get what you pay for ($5.95 + ship) so I buy several. I prefer the protection from scratches and ease of use . It does make getting to buttons a little harder, I agree.
I went on Ebay and got a clear one for around $4 shipped. looks decent, works, only thing about the clear ones is that dust tends to collect under them and phone looks dirtier. a quick clean and back to new. i dont recomend dropping the phone using the case, but in all honesty i dont recommend droping the phone all together.
Acer official accessories are expected soon; however, in the meantime, this docking station and remote have appeared online at HMV.com

Here's the other item I have on order from eBay for my new Acer tablet.
Portable Fold-Up Stand for Motorola Xoom Tablet
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160543570947
This looks to be a handy portable stand. The Xoom and the Acer are very close in depth (12.9mm vs 13mm) so I suspect it should work with out modification. A lot less expensive than the dock and available today !

This little stand looks really versatile.

I bought this based on your post. It looks EXACTLY like the acer store version and it better be. I'll let everyone know. This is a great purchase if it's on the money.
I've got one of these on order: http://padpivot.com/ I ordered it when it was first on Kickstarter so not sure when they'll be on general release.
Looks nice!
I went round the corner to maplin and asked did they have any spare stands they use for their tablets, they gave me one lol
Let me know if anyone else has any luck...
I did try the actual Xoom's protective case. Unfortunately, it does not fit. The Acer is wider by about 1/2 inch. I had to return the case and order the one now offered at Staples for the Acer. Just an FYI if anyone is curious

I have held the Xoom and Acer side-by-side. The size is actually quite different in both length and width. The Xoom is smaller on both counts.
However, the iPad is wider than the Iconia, and the Iconia 20mm longer than the iPad. I have found that the Iconia will fit in some iPad sleeves. Provided there is a bit of 'give' in the iPad sleeve's length.
Anything that is purpose built for another device though (with specific dimensions in mind) is hard to adapt.
Also, 10" netbook sleeves and cases have proven to be quite good with the Iconia as well. Often there is a little wiggle room which is handy for cables and chargers.

Received it today and it works great with the Acer. I have it setup on my desk slightly tilted back and the tablet is much easier to see and use. It's very adjustable and very stable.
Also got a DAGi stylus to use with it (see picture). It works much better than a rubber tipped one and is much more accurate. Also, no fingerprints !. But it's something else to carry around.
I just picked it up from Staples and so far so good. It does what it says although it doesn't seem like there is a way to keep the front cover flap secured to the back when in use. I'm not sure that I care all that much about it though. Otherwise seems like a good deal for the money.
PS. It seems to be the official ACER case.
hmmm. sort of ugly.
Got the dock from Acer. Wanted to throw a few pics down as well as a review.
In your review... you state: "you can NOT dock the tab with the case on".
Are you referring to the Acer case? I was thinking maybe it was thin enough that it might allow docking? Thanks!!

Edit... incorrect. When I saw how thick the tab was with the flap back I didn't try to shove it on. I have been told it works fine tho.

Yeah, definitely unfortunate! I haven't tried taking it out of the case, but it was a bit of bother getting it in. Very tight fit. Wouldn't want to wrestle it in and out on a daily basis.

This stylus is well rated on Amazon. Just ordered one, should do great on our tabs. Tried one by Griffin today and even with the thick screen protector it worked awesomely.
This is a daily sale site, so it will end soon.

I take notes at meetings and at school. So I'm gonna give this a try. We really lack a good note taking app though. Tab notes is the best so far and its not that great compared to one note.
I'd really love to use a stylus for sketching - could care less for note taking. But sketching would be great - only problem is, the tab isn't all that responsive - I mean, don't get me wrong - it's great. It's just wasn't built with that kind of functionality in mind... Which is unfortunate.
Still though, I'll get one eventually.
You know, I thought the same thing. I would draw something and the line would follow after. Using tabnotes it doesn't do that. I was looking for a mod to increase screen polling or responsiveness but nothing.
I ordered one, still no shipping info and no response to my email, oh well glad I paid with PayPal, if I don't hear anything in a few days, I will file a complaint with PayPal.

Mine shipped a day or two ago. These daily deal sites are slow.
The the BEST I've used.
DAGi P504. Don't have a link just Google. Transparent tip is mounted on a spring so no matter what angle your holding it, it will make contact. Very precise. I like it a lot better than the old style which you hat to hold at only one angle & much better than the eraser type.
Pointed tip Stylus?
Does anyone know of a stylus with a pointed rubber tip like the HTC Flyer one only usable on the A500? I would like one for some of the drawing programs and just can't get used to the rounded oversize points on most generic stylus.
Thanks
That's a nice stylus. I wonder if it does.
http://www.ipaddoodler.com/article/big-ipad-stylus-review
I know that says iPad but it's a great quick run down of a few stylus (styli?). I am really considering the Ostylus or the Dagi one, but they have a new model the 506 with a slightly different design.
Anyone else see this yet? They are taking pre orders now it looks like.

Soooo beautiful. Great design, but over $100 is little too much to me for keyboard folio.
Holy Christ on a spike, that's bloody expensive for a keyboard! Not a chance in hell.

Just bought the one you mentioned above; keyboard works pretty good but times out very quickly. It has to be reconnected in the settings every 15 minutes or so of inactivity. Typing is extremely fast and responsive though.
This keyboard is more of a universal keyboard than it is tailored to Android. It's got a home key on it, and the esc key doubles as a back key, but it also has a Windows logo key.
My biggest complaint is the folio case itself is extremely cheaply made. It's floppy, and doesn't really support itself very well. As a matter of fact, it almost makes it awkward to use. The keyboard is molded into the case and does not come out. The tablet is held on by one big sticky patch on the case. It doesn't leave any residue, but it does leave me wondering how many times I can remove the tablet from the case before it doesn't stick any more. Unfortunately the tablet doesn't fit into my car dock RAM mount while it's in the case, so I would be removing the case every day.
The case also covers the speakers on the Iconia, which muffles the sound pretty good.
All in all, like the keyboard, hate the case. I think it's way too overpriced to have such a crappy, flimsy, cheap feel to it. I think I'll be returning it.
Att sells a real nice keyboard. Very thin. 50 bones though
The standard acer bluetooth keyboard and acer mini usb mouse is the best combination I have found to date. I use this setup in the office. But to go mobile...this makes you carry around a keyboard no matter what. It's nice, not practical for daily mobile use IMO.
worth it
I got this keyboard, works wonderfully. Adhesive bit sticks nicely to tablet, keys travel well, And connects easily via bluetooth. Worth it if you need a keyboard. I've used it for school, taking notes, even writing whole essays on docs
I bought this keyboard for only 14 bucks
^Same as him. Works like a champ too, I would recommend it in a heart beat. I've had mine since Feb and its still in great shape plus, despite the look, it protects the tablet well.

Didn't think so as it would need the digitiser from the Note. But does anyone know if it has the extra screen sensitivity setting that the Galaxy S5 had. I remember with that phone I was amazed that i could write on the screen really easily with a ball point pen or pencil, it was no S-Pen but having the precision of a pencil is so much better than a generic fat stylus. It didn't leave much mess on the phone either, just had to remember to not press down hard.
It would be great if the S7 had this feature as I'm selling my Note 4 to get the Edge.

Yeah, I also want to know if S7 has this feature by using a normal pencil as a stylus.. Anyone has tried this yet? Also want to upgrade from Note 4 to S7 Edge if confirm can use this feature..
I bought a note 5 stylus from eBay to try it out. Problem is it's from China so it will take about 4 weeks to get here.
Just moved from a Note 4 to a S7 Edge (SM-9350). The Note 4's pen does NOT work on my S7.
Let me know if you want some additional information.

If you use nova launcher add a action to home screen under settings is a page that says s-pen and this is what is in it.

triyed with a raw piece of metal (very subtle) and confirm that the screen respond almost like my note 4 with s-pen. -> it must be conductive (take care to not scratch the screen).
Used a paperclip and it works with the phone..lol
Got a Note 5 and S7 Edge both.
Doesn't work.
You will need one of these!

Well considering my wife has the note 5 I think not. She needed a replacement so how is it a waste? Before you start to judge you need to know the situation first.

oh well now you make sense lol
I gave the Note 5 pen a try and it doesn't work at all. Won't register a single click probably cause of the fine point tip. I also tried with my regular Amazon basics pen which I use for my Windows tablet and it works just fine.
Urh
It will never work, the Spen does not use your normal Stylus.
Normal Stylus is normally a conductor to pass your electromagnetic thought the pen
(thats most finger detection)
Samsung USED to have a GLOVE mode, So this turned the Screen Touch to Pressure sensitivity,.
(A pencil would work in this case)
You would be required to get a conductor to use as a Stylus i.e. use the Static proof paper to make your own Stylus, It works)
The Spen used hardware for detection, Hence the Hovering of the Spen showed it cursor, the Press hard and less showed worked for Thickness thiness,
It also counted how high the pen was off the screen
(Worked with the sPen SDK Before)
