Now the Bamboo stylus is designed for the iPad!

I really like the stylus for the Bamboo models and especially now that there is one created to be compatible with the Apple iPad. There are even applications made specifically for the iPad:

  • Penultimate – note taking
  • Autodesk Sketchbook Mobile – sketching
  • Good Reader – file manager
  • Adobe Ideas – add your own touches to an image
  • Doodle Buddy – simple doodle pad
  • ArtRage – painting

It is also compatible with the iPhone4 and has limited support for the first generation Samsung Galaxy Tab. And there are plans to make the Bamboo stylus for the iPad compatible with other touch screen devices in the future.

The tip of the stylus is 25% narrower in diameter than other graphic tablet pens (6mm versus 8mm). This made it easier for me to make precise and finer lines than other graphic tablet pens. I especially noticed a difference with my handwriting.

I’m excited about this new Bamboo/iPad pen! No more finger marks on my iPad/ iPhone4 and it will be much easier to take notes and sketch on the fly.
