SlashGear gave some attention to the stylus in their review.

My handwriting is pretty good and the tablet has no trouble converting it into text. I write quite a string then when I pause it converts it into text with good accuracy. But handwriting isn’t my main usage scenario for the stylus.

I prefer a keyboard for text input and will probably get a bluetooth kb* for this device. My interest in the tablet would be the ability to embed quick diagrams into documents, and of course photos from the internal camera. But using a completely different platform throws all my skillz out the door so I have a lot to learn. For instance I don’t yet know how to select, copy and paste.

The included Notebook application seems kind of primitive, and doesn’t even permit keyboard input. I will be looking for a more advanced drawing application, and my dream date would be one that can import a photo from the camera for annotation. And then paste into a Google Document. And then make me coffee, preferably fair-trade.

The only shortcoming I’ve noticed in the OS so far is a slight lag when waking from sleep.

*Possibly the keyboard/case that Lenovo makes for it, which transforms it into a mutant Android “laptop” and doubles as armor-plating when closed up. But to me the whole point of a GorillaGlass screen and rubberized coating is that I don’t need a case. I hope. There are lots of little BlueTooth keyboards on the market so I’ll look at a bunch of them.

* Not everyone will trust the cloud for all types of data.
* As massive as the internal storage may be, the growth of data (especially high res picture files, drawings, etc.,) will require pruning.

Looks like a good device. The trick with all Android devices will be manufacturer support.
