Sadly, any capacitive stylus isn't going to be very good for things like writing or drawing. I have a Caseen stylus that I use and do like, but really the only reason I bought it is because it triples as a flashlight and laser pointer.
For the Adonit, get some electrical conductive grease, take the disc off the end, add a tiny bit of grease to the ball, reassemble.
I also have a Caseen vibe and love it. The mesh in the end makes it glide easier than the rubber tipped ones.
I'm using a cheap one I bought on eBay lol. Got it got $0.50 but its been just as responsive as using my finger

Samsung stylus works for me!
Sent from my GT-P6200 using Tapatalk
My wife and I are both using the Samsung conductive stylus.
She bought it for me for a gift and at first I was skeptical because I had not used one before. But I quickly adapted to it and now the stylus goes with me everywhere I go (it works great on my Atrix and the touch screens at work).
The stylus has greatly reduced the need to constantly wipe the screen of fingerprints, although the rubber tip does leave a barely noticeable smudge on occasion. I find that my accuracy is much improved, especially trying to click on tiny hot links.
Swiping is intuitive as well, but if you swipe too quickly it may skip. You also need to get a feel for how hard to press down on the tip. As far as using drawing or note taking apps, I don't use either, but I have done some scribbling and note writing as a test on the stock pen memo app that came with the tablet and the stylus seemed to work fine. Just don't expect razor sharp detail in your penmanship or artwork.
As I would expect from a Samsung product, the build quality is fantastic. The black and chrome finish looks classy and the stylus has a solid heft to it. The barrel is roughly the diameter of a regular writing instrument and has a very natural feel when held in my small/medium sized hand.
I'm actually considering getting two more so I can have one at home, at work and one in the car, so I'll always have one available. Yes I've forgotten to take it with me and went through withdrawal.
adonit jot pro.... it's amazing stylus for capacitive screen... works well on ipad and galaxy tab... i myself plan to buy one, but i can't buy it because i don't have credit card
How are these stylus (Samsung or Adonit) works on screen protector?
My past experience with the stylus on screen protector hasn't been very positive. The stylus is hard to move and lots of skipping.
Just wondering....

I'm using a China made stylus on my tab with a scratch proof screen protector. It works great although I need to apply just a little pressure sometimes...

I use a box wave stylus and it works great. I use it for drawing and playing games and it never missing a press. Very light pressure and it still works. They can be found on Amazon for an about 8 dollars.

Having trouble finding a stylus with a thin tip on it, all I can find are ones with the fat round tip. Trying to use a design program on tab and need precise selections with a stylus and the fat tips aren't cutting it.
Any input will be appreciated.

You might have a look at the Samsung stylus line; the tips appear to be smaller, though it might be their shape. The jot stylus uses a different type of nib altogether - worth ckecking out. And you might try an Amazon search for "brush stylus" and see what pops up. If, I'm not mistaken, capacitve styluses need to have big nibs to function properly. Mibs!

Take a look at the Adonit Jot. It has its own problems but it is the only capacitive stylus I have ever seen that doesn't use a fat, rubber tip. It is excellent for precise drawings.
Now just curious and I hope I'm not barging in on this but... Would a stylus with a thin point be better for use with screen protector? I have yet to find a stylus that claims it works fine with a screen protector
Let me edit this to be more clear: I'm trying to find a Stylus that works well with screen protectors. I have used a couple that my friends have but they all didn't work well. I want one that works well not crappy.
My bro is an art designer and he uses a Wacom stylus which has NO FRICTION, is capacitive and has a thiner point instead of all others
It's the WACOM BAMBOO STYLUS http://www.wacom.eu/index2.asp?pid=...utm_content=it&utm_campaign=bamboo_stylus_duo, check it out dude

I'd be curious what you think of the Jot. A review would be appreciated.
G.B. Says
And remember, talking dogs are liars.
From what I have found, the only type of stylus that will work with our tabs is a fat one or one with a conductive foam that mimics the finger. The thin smaller ones, like ones used for wacom tablets, use a different type of screen response altogether like the one found in the galaxy note or older palm pilots for example.
As far as working with a screen protector, it requires significantly more pressure and closer to a 90 or perpandicular angle for my griffin stylus to get picked up. Without the protector it works pretty well at most angles. This is only from personal experience with an armorsuit screen protector and a griffin stylus. I'm sure different combinations would produce varying results, but most likely similar to the point of frustration.
If you are looking to legitimately draw and illustrate I'd suggest sticking with a wacom. That's my preference at least.

I own the Jot and have used it on an iPad and an Asus Transformer. I also own an HP TM2 with a digitizer and a Wacom stylus. No capacitive only screen will be as acurate as a tablet with an active digitizer, such as my HP or a Galaxy Note. If you only have a capacitive screen the Jot differs in that it uses a small metal point surrounded by a clear plastic disc instead of a rubber tip, so it is much more precise than other capacitive styluses. However, although I haven't had problems, some people have had issues with the disc wearing out or have claimed that the tip scratched their screen. Just to be safe I only use it on gadgets with Gorilla glass. To sum up, for precise drawings its the best I've found for a capacitive screen, but if you plan on doing serious work get yourself a unit with an active digitizer - if you use a capacitive only screen like the iPad or 7 plus you're basically using finger paints.

Anyone know where I can get a case like the one attached, for the TF300? I found it on Amazon but it is not currently in stock.
Get the one for the prime and punch out two holes. One for the mic and one for the ear phones.
I have exactly that and love it

I got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007HKIU08/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00
It was $12.99 when I bought it. I haven't received it yet so I can't tell you if its good or not. I only payed like $3 for it since I had $10 gift cards on amazon. So, hopefully it is worth that

Do you think it would be possible to post some pictures of what it looks like on your tablet?
this case has the headphone hole in the wrong location so you have to make your own whole. i have this one and had to cut it to create a hole for the headphones. other than that its a solid case. i just got it yesterday.

Quick Review: I really like this case. I have both this one and the Caseen Green Plaid case. I like them both. I prefer this one for work at a desk and static viewing. The caseen case is very superior for use on the move and the hand strap is priceless for working while moving and holding it. Both cases are well made without strong odor and were originally designed for the TF201 (Caseen's has been modified for the TF300 by Caseen)
The TF300 fits very well into the case without having to be forced and the velcro holds it very securely.
Pictures! (I'm an IT guy not a photographer)

There is a microphone under this leather
You can see the hole punched in the Caseen case for the mic here:
This is where the headphone jack is:
See the hole in the caseen case:
Here is the camera on the right and the light sensor on the left. As you can see the light sensor is slightly obfuscated, this is not an issue for me since I don't use it.
Here are the speaker cut out (very slightly off) and the camera cutout (with the cut out for nonexistent flash)

I have one.
My sister traded me for the Targus fat tip stylus I was using.
I like the fat tip stylus better...I think it's more like a finger tip.
My sis says the fat tip works a lot better on her (shudder) iPad also.
This one is just great,

I use a stylus constantly. I was getting the rubber tipped ones of of eBay. Like 6 for 7 bucks. But, after a while, it seems they break down or something. Doesn't glide well at all after a few weeks. Amazon has a new kind out that has nylon micro fiber cloth instead of rubber. I ordered it. I'll give a review after i try it.

I don't have the bag, it looks like a nice one though.
I just wanted to comment on the stylus that comes with the deal.
Never seen one like it.
Pretty neat-o little thing...very different design.
Wonder who makes those?
Something with a little more protection (and style)

I know the prices do not compare, but check this out. It's what I have, but I got it on sale. You can also look at all of their bags that will suit the infinity. See if this works.
not sure if you decided to go with that or not, but I got http://www.amazon.com/Retro-Canvas-...1650340&sr=8-1&keywords=israeli+parachute+bag and it was pretty amazing. It houses both my 15 inch laptop several power cords and my tablet with keyboard, while still being fairly small. I have had it for a while, and it is the second such bag that I have owned, It takes a beating, and is well worth the price. I don't use a sleeve for my tablet, but I either have the keyboard dock or cover I purchased on, and I have had no scratch problems.

Order 2 of these (one for my son for his tablet; mostly for SL101 and adapter but sometimes with the SL101 and TF700 and one for my nephew for his iPad). Unfortunately, the price went up since I got it (doubled).

with carrying a PS3 controller, you may want to go with more a brief case style travel bag. I would be worried about accidently breaking the controller since it'll likely the thickest thing in the page and protruding the most in the pocket.
I don't have recommendation because I use the sleeve. I do have a PS3 controller, but I keep mine in the topperware bin with a Wiimote and classic controller. I also drag around a OnLive universal controller too, but don't have a carrying case/topperware bin for it.
