I've oredered an iPad air 2 and I'd like to buy a stylus pen too. I'd feel much comfortable using the pen rather than fingers with the iPad. Now, I'd like to know is using a stylus pen with ipad good idea, and if so, which would be the best for the job. I don't need it to draw on my ipad, but just for navigation.

If you just want a stylus for prodding the screen and not for writing or any special features, then you can get styluses (styli?) on Ebay for pennies.

Here are 5 for £2.99: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/5-x-ULTRA-...-/370857120157

That's just an example plucked at random. Many others are available. They are so cheap that you needn't be worried about losing one.

The rumours are that Apple will be launching their own stylus with added functionality later this year. Don't expect it to be cheap though.

Thanks for the info guys, I'll look into it. I would not be buying Apple stylus anyway. I love most of the Apple products but I think they should have included the pen with their tablet models at the first place at no extra cost.
