Hey all,

 

 

Just got myself a windows 8.1 tablet (Acer Iconia W1-810) and pretty happy with it. But when using it in desktop mode, using fingers and an ordinary stylus is absolutely frustrating to say the least, navigating menus etc. Especially on an 8" screen.

 

 

I was looking at these:

I don't care that much about their advance functions (though it would be nice if they worked), but these are the only ones I can find with a fine tip that don't have a stupid swivel head on them. The microsoft one says exclusive to the surface pro, but is this with just the BASIC function of a stylus as well?

 

 

opinions on these and other recommendations would be much appreciated.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Josh
