I just got one from eBay for 8.99 shipped. Works well except for swiping. That could improve.

Maybe this would work well. The Kno looks pretty cool too. I wonder if they have plans to market to business.

Read that with a custom ROM and kernel, the stylus input is improved...

P.S. Looking at Galaxy Tab and Nookcolor, wonder which one has better stylus annotation support...

Cheers.

Some people over xda has recommended the Dagi, which among other things, have a transparent tip so that you can see where your pointer is.

The question is, through, if any of these can provide enough accuracy for handwritten annotations...? As I've seen (on YouTube, that's) that the sensitivity of Nook's screen is so-so, broken lines appear easily with styli.

Cheers.

They do tend to work for straight taps, so if that's all you need it will probably be fine. And the fatter ones work best.

I tried a capacitive stylus for drawing apps on the rooted nook and that didn't work well at all.
What he said.

I bought a Targus stylus, which works well enough, I guess, but went back to using my finger a couple of days later.
