Oh... and the iPad is the toy that is expensive...

A very acceptable stylus can be made for about 3 cents (pen barrel, conductive foam, a length of fine copper wire)

Please, Can I se it demonstrated? Just got an iPad, and I am really too cheap now to go out and buy a stylus. Besides, because of where I live, it has to be over the net. And then I have to go to the post office in town 30 km away to fetch it at the parcel center. PLUS, I am sure others have the same sentiment.

AND seriously: I really would like to see it demonstrated!
