Adonit Jot on Groupon

Thanks for posting as well...I've been wanting to buy the Jot for a while and the price is just perfect with that promo.

EDIT: Actually, I just read the fine print on it...and it says "Does not ship to Canada"...but my order went through without any problems...we'll see what happens I guess.

Where did you see this? I'm in canada too and would like to get one.
 
Does this ship to Canada? It appears under my local city but it says in the fine print that it doesn't ....
 
I ordered one and look forward to using it. I have a JustMobile AluPen which was 'meh' - sucked for writing but OK for drawing.
 
Thanks for posting this. I've been debating purchasing the Jot Pro, but this made the decision a lot easier!
 
Aren't the reviews saying that this makes allot of noise when tapping on the screen?

It's a great deal, but I passed because a few reviews said people scratched their screen and another complained that it was a little loud in class.

I'm sure it's fine, but I didn't want to risk it. A lot of other forum members here love the Adonit Jot and haven't had issues though. I wish more art apps supported it, but hopefully they will in the future.

Used in construction (dirty/gritty) environment for over six months now, without a screen protector, not a single scratch on my iPad 2 screen. My iPad 3 has seen heavy use (maybe 30 hours of note-taking/sketches) in the past two weeks and again, without a screen protector, not a scratch on it.

The tip itself cannot scratch your screen. Catching a piece of grit between the disc and the screen could. But you'd notice this immediately as it would impair the performance of the the Jot itself.

Honestly...I think some people just make stuff up and post it in reviews.

As for the noise, yes...it makes more than a rubber tipped stylus would. But if you write in cursive, you won't notice it all that much. If you print, more noticeable.
