Best fine tip writing stylus for iPad Air?

I have some apps on my new iPad Air where I can use a stylus to jot notes, etc. However, all I have is the fat round rubber-type stylus. One is from Bamboo, the others were gifts. They are awkward to use for notes, to do lists, etc. Is there a fine tip stylus that can be used that will not harm my iPad screen? Any recommendations/suggestions are most appreciated.

How about taking a clipping from a pdf, like a text book problem, and inserting into a note? On my Note 10.1, I can clip a jpeg from the pdf book for my class, then import that picture clipping into my notes, resize and place where I need it. I'd like to dump my note for an ipad if I could.


My biggest things are line quality, the clipping issue I mentioned, and palm rejection.

I have been using the Lynktec Apex finepoint stylus and love it. It does not require a bluetooth connection to work on the iPad Air or any tablet I have found. They have a rechargeable and a battery powered version. It works with any note taking app I have found. It is truly like writing with a pen. The words you are writing appear below the tip, so it looks and feels like you are writing with a pen. The rechargeable stylus is a bit bulky, but it works great. A charge lasts about 10 days before needing a recharge. I would recommend it to anyone. I use it in meetings for note taking, and have been asked many times how it works and if they can try it. Everyone I have let use it and try it have gone out and bought one. I just purchased the purchased the Apex Plus, which is not as bulky and has a nicer look. It is battery operated (AAA). I traded the look of the pen for the rechargeability of the pen.
