Thanks, guys. Maybe I will just stick with the Dash, then. I don't need it for anything other than fine photo editing (healing out random items that spoil the look etc), I don't sketch or write with it. I use it with Adobe Fix on my iPad and that works beautifully.

I chose it at the time because the Apple Pencil was incompatible with my devices, and it seemed to be flexible enough for my uses. It has a little charging device that plugs into a USB port and then the top of it clicks into place magnetically on top of that. It works. (except it didnt the other day). I wanted a Pencil but can't justify the cost. I think I would have to get one of those tethering things off ebay, so I wouldnt lose the cap, I'm hopeless like that. I guess Pencil isnt for me.
