Stylus for iPad 2 note-taking

[mfm77]

Hi all, I'm looking for a good stylus to use with the iPad 2 to take notes and to make annotations on documents. I'm an teacher and a grad student, so I do much writing. Can anyone make recommendations?

I ordered one as well. I've been watching this one for a long time and now that it comes so highly endorsed by a pro, I had to get it!

The black one is on sale at Amazon right now for $25.56 with free shipping.

That's exactly where I ordered it from, too. With the sale combined with no sales tax, we saved some bucks!

I like very much Bamboo Stylus, the quality and simple design

i use a targus stylus... it is good and the price is unbeatable

Which, in my world, means I can buy another nifty accessory with my savings!

Bamboo is the way to go.

I don't like how the targus one is sort of fat...I clicked on that link and saw right away that the tip is narrower, I ordered two!

I just got my Bamboo stylus and have been playing around with it. WOW! It's totally worth the money - so incredibly useful for note-taking and annotating, not to mention drawing and just plain doodling.

My Bamboo arrived today. Wow! It's really high quality! I have kind of a pen fetish, so I'm pretty picky. I'm very pleased with it!

I use the hard candy stylus and I have been happy with it.

I own 3 different stylus and I can confirm that among them the bamboo one is the best

I recently bought a Jot and wow is it ever nice! It has a little plastic disk at the tip to keep your contact flat on the screen, but it's clear, so you only see the point of the stylus where it makes contact.

Very pleased!

In the words of Steve jobs, "you have five attached to the end of each hand" HAHAHA I had one made by Giffen didn't like it, but the Bamboo stylus is very nice! +for Bamboo stylus!

I am waiting for my Cosmanaut Stylus thru kickstarter. Looks like it should be great! Just search for Cosmanaut Stylus. They are $25.

Ok, this is gonna sound really stupid.
New to Apple and the iPad2,
In which apps is the stylus usable for note taking, etc.
TIA
