"ixelpoint technology allowed us to shrink the stylus tip size down to 1.9mm; 70% smaller than the nearest competition. While fingers and rubber styluses feel more like markers or crayons, Pixelpoint helped create a true digital pen. The tip’s material was hand-picked to mimic the drag of a pen on paper, giving you more control and better expression in every stroke."

Check out the Hex3 Nota. Had mine for a couple of days. It's nib is thinner than regular styli so you can actually see what you're writing or where you're clicking, it's hard rubber so you don't get the tap-tapping sound like the ones with metal tips or transparent discs. I've seen negative reviews from artists who perhaps prefer the styli with little discs.

But for writing and general use I'm really pleased with the Nota.
