Will the Nintendo DS stylus work on the ipad?
Without scratching it of cause. And if I can then I'll know what type of styluses I'm looking for, for my future ipad.

No it will not work. The iPad has the capasitive touch scree so a simple plastic stylus will not work.

If you really want a stylus for the iPad I would try the styloid iPod stylus at radtech.com. If it works on an iPod touch it should theoretically work just as well on the iPad.

I saw those but I thuoght the end on those is really fat. Not like a a usual pen like stylus with a tiny end. But will what I want is in the market I just might have to invest in one of those. And thanks

.

If someone had an ipad case with a pocket for a stylus, and it was durable, I'd buy it today even though I do not have an ipad.
Now am I obsessed about an ipad stylus?

Join the club I have everything bookmarked and will probably purchase at the
end of the month. I have waited long enough and the wife wants it.

Why would we want a stylus? My finger works really well.

I have one, works great but a bit pricey for what it is. Yes it's stubby on the end, but that is really not an issue. They are really needed in the drawing apps. I also find myself using it in some games....

Some can draw just fine with their finger others require a stylus.
