Stylish Styluses for Analog and Digital Notebooks
 

Digital writing has come a long way from the first PDAs that were rolled out in the 1990s, when handwriting recognition technology was rather spotty. The Kindle Scribe's update gives users myriad options when using a PDA stylus for daily writing.

New brush types include a mechanical pencil, a marker, and even a fountain pen option, each with five different stroke widths. These new brush options respond to various pressures and angles.

As this digital technology improves, various brands are responding with new multifunctional styluses that marry ingenuity and style.
