Noteshelf has a "wrist protection" option, basically it's just a part of the screen that you can place your wrist on without disturbing the writing. But it only works if there is only one point of contact with the hand, not if you put wrist and palm, as I did at first. The protected zone moves as you write. It's not perfect and it does require an adaptation, but it works for me. |
I have that one, Notetaker HD also is really good. I agree that most of the time I don't need one, but writing notes witha finger hasn't been natural to me since Kindergarden. If Apple would just make a fine tip pen accessory for those that want it, they would completely kill my need for Windows. Right now a Windows tablet with OneNote and pen is the only draw windows has left for me.. thats an expensive need to make me buy a Windows Device. Don't get me wrong, I still use Windows for my home business but thats for work.. iPad is more my leisure, note taking/writing device, paired up with my Mac.
I've been hoping someone would figure out how to get a fine tip pen onto a capacitive touch screen..
Speaking of OneNote, if anyone is as addicted to it as I am, there is an iPad App thats free called Outline that can view your Native OneNote files, tabs and all. Great program..
