let me just come right out and say it, folks. The ifaraday stylus pen for Ipad is a digital artists dream come true. I'd been using the infamous POGO STYLUS, that's sold in the Apple store, and realized within a couple of hours that THIS was NOT the best tool for anyone who is trying to draw seriously on the ipad. I consulted Angie Jordan, and Scott Sullivan of the Digital Blacksmiths for their advice, and was told about the magical mystical ifaraday stylus which is noted for it's responsiveness, and "pen like" feel. It took some weeks to receive my ifaraday, due to tis immense popularity, it was on back order, but it finally arrived, last week. Within MINUTES I knew that I would be spending a small fortune, keeping myself well stocked with this pen! It's thicker than the POGO , the drawing tip doesnt jut out like a giant Q Tip, and it's responsiveness is "like butter" on warm bread. I was sketching so easily with it that at times I forgot I was using a stylus. I have these "big sausage like" fingers anyway, so the thickness of the pen felt good in my hands also. I would recommend this pen to any artist SERIOUS about doing digital drawing or painting... which... is kinda bad... now that I think about it... you all will be ordering these pens and causing MORE of them to be on back order~~ I'd better put in my order today, before the Christmas rush!
Dont take MY word for it, though, read a short excerpt from their website at

What makes the iFaraday stylus different?
The iFaraday tip is made of soft cloth which glides smoothly across the screen. It won't scratch or leave a mess on your screen. The iFaraday stylus requires the lightest touch, just enough to provide tactile feedback.
The iFarady has a pliable, symmetrical tip which functions at any angle. The tip conforms to the screen such that a planar sphere is reflected on the screen surface, like a human finger. (Touchscreens are optimized to look for the shape of a human finger.)
On another note, what's so cool about the iFaraday, is that it's creator, made it originally NOT to make a "buck" but purely for LOVE! read THIS excerpt from the page:
Rustle Laidman developed the iFaraday stylus for his wife, who likes to play 'Bejeweled' on her iPhone.
AH... the things that love for a woman will drive you to... cue the song, when a man loves a woman.....

How would you rate the iFaraday stylus for note taking? I would like to start using my iPad for taking notes at work, so I need a stylus that is good for writing with.
I would rate it pretty good for note taking. Considering how drawing uses the same linear lines of printing as well as curved lines for cursive writing. When one draws they are not inventing "new" strokes, after all, simply building on and exaggerating motions learned in normal handwriting.
Can I just say what a comfort to uncover someone that actually understands what they are discussing on the internet.
You actually realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important.
More people ought to look at this and understand
this side of the story. I was surprised you are not more popular
because you surely possess the gift.
