This is a well made product, the weight is very reasonable to be writing on the tablet with and has worked very well to be able to take notes in class. My only complaint is that sometimes you have to push down harder than I would think is nessicary for the touch screen, and then at other times the touch is very soft and it is fine. Of course this could be a combination of the tablet and something else.

Overall a good prouduct that does what it is supposed to do.

Edit 9/28: I am sad to say I have had to take this review down a star. I love this pen for what it is, but over the past few days it has worn down. This is not overly noticable by looking at the product, but when writing notes the pen sticks more to the screen and I must tilt the pen away from the tip to write as smoothly as I once could. I plan on stoking up on a few of the cheaper knock off pens.I hope this is just a manufacturer defect and everyone else can ejnoy this pen to the fullest.

Use a very light touch. I have not noticed any wear. It keeps smudges off screen. I wish there was a way to attach it to my Tablet. I keep it in the case and use it most of the time.

As my title says, with a touch screen, you should be able to get away with using your fingers. Why need a stylus?

A few points it's hard to see from the picture, but it's got kind of a rubbery, squishy end to the pointer. So, I have yet to get a regular stylus (like you might see with a Nintendo DS) to work on the device. But this pen has a nice heft to it, and it's really handy to use. One of the biggest complaints about the Thrive is that it's a fingerprint magnet, which is 100% true.

Having said that GET the screen protector. I hate screen protectors, but on this tablet they're going to perform two functions obviously prevent scratches, but they also cut down on fingerprints. So does using this pen. The screen is gorgeous, but you'll appreciate not having to wipe it down all the time.

Every touchscreen, be it on a gps, phone, or tablet, of mine suffers from the oils in my system and always has fingerprints. However, since I got this "pen" they suffer much less. It performs exactly as advertised and the soft tip actually has more friction to move on the surface than my finger and leaves absolutely no streaks or prints. As a bonus, it doesn't seem to pick up dust or dirt and require cleaning. I'd buy it again.

Attractive design. However, after a few weeks use the soft tip end started falling out and the clip arm broke. Will be buying a different manufacturer replacement.
