Hand written notes-can I ?

Attending a series of seminars. Rules are quite specific: no electronic note taking devices using a keyboard. Want to take notes, it must be done the old fashioned way (don't ask ). Someone asked about using ipad, which is acceptable, but only with built in touch keyboard. My question- is there a good app and stylus that would allow me to write notes by hand on ipad 3 that would translate them to digital?

Note Taker HD (for iPad) Review & Rating | PCMag.com -this app also lets you write with your finger as if its a stylus
The stylus' they sell at BestBuy stores near the iPads are pretty good.
