As a result, the stylus works like a relatively sharp pen-I really can take excellent ink notes using it. It’s that point that your eye sees as your write, and the ink is laid down from that center point. The point that holds the disc is a sharp stylus point that is embedded in the middle of that clear disc. The Jot Pro places a quarter-inch wide clear plastic flat disc on the surface of the iPad, which rotates about at the end of the pen shaft. It works completely different from the others foam-tipped styluses. That’s why I’m so excited about the new stylus that came out a few months ago called the Jot Pro. After trying 2 or 3 new and improved models that still did not meet my needs, I abandoned that quest. Some people could do it more precisely, but it never worked for me. But using those, due to the unwieldy size of the tip, I always ended up creating huge lettering-the size of which, in my mind, made normal note taking almost impossible. And later some companies released styluses that sported broad foam tips that imitated a fingertip. Sure, you could write with your finger tip. So when the iPad came out, I wasn’t happy that it was fairly impractical for electronic ink notes. I did that all the time in business meetings and used it when brainstorming. One of the things I liked best about the Tablet PC, and wrote a lot about, was using it to take good ink notes right on the screen. I don’t recommend you buy it now, it’s horribly out of date and mostly out of print, but I’ve been watching the tablet space closely since then. Many of you may know that I wrote a book in 2004 about the Tablet PC, and it became the best-selling book about the Tablet PC at that time. I feel taking good notes should be a part of any business skill set, and this stylus (called the Jot Pro) in my mind finally makes doing that on an iPad practical.īackground: Tablet PC’s were good at this I’ve finally found a stylus for the iPad that I can take good accurate ink notes with, and I’m really excited about it.
