stylus

does anyone know of a stylus that is not the huge round tip that you typically find but more like the pen for the htc flyer?

For capacitive screens you really need the area that those honking big round tips provide. On resistive screens you can get away with the super fine point stylus that most people think of when you say, "stylus." The closest thing I've found is the e.stylo, and even that is huge...and wooden. I would almost kill for a fine point (fountain pen style fine point) stylus, but I don't think the screen technology permits it.

If anyone has an alternative, I'd like to hear about it. This Targus stylus is the suck and the e.stylo is just a bit disconcerting to use (tap, tap, tap, drag).

It looks cool i wish i could find a site where i could buy it. If the tip is stiff the angles would help make for more precision. Its really hard to draw and write on the tab with a pen the size of a dime.

You can buy the e.stylo from their website. That's where I got mine; fast ship and friendly, frequent contact with one of the inventors/owners. No affiliation other than being a customer.

I have the Samsung stylus and I love it. It is my favorite accessory. I use it constantly!
I got it through Samsung.com.

Hope this helps.

Another option is the recently announced Adonit Jot and Jot Pro. I've just ordered the Pro version, but the pre-order lead time is four weeks.

Here's a little Cnet video showing you how to make a do it yourself Stylus from an old pen and a sponge.
