Apps with palm rejection that I know of: Wacom notes, which in the latest version is almost flawless. Unfortunately that version is iOS7 only, and the last version to be compatible with iOS6 was completely broken in that area. Other, less successful ones are Jotter and its sister app Scrapnote, and Penultimate. Can't think of any others at the moment.

That said, in my limited experience with the Wacom Intuos stylus, a Bluetooth stylus does not improve palm recognition in the slightest. Maybe others work better...
Noteshelf has a palm rest area as well, but I think only on the right side of the screen.
BTW, if anyone here has Noteshelf, they offer all their in-app purchases free at the moment in iOS7 for the upgrade - that's a bunch of special notebok covers and stationary.
