Does she have an iPad Pro?

There are styluses specifically for the new iPads, which have

a battery life & have special functions...and can run well over $100+.

I'd like to know as well.  Have an iPad Pro but hesitate to spend another $100 for the pen.  Is it worth it?

I ordered one from walmart for a stocking stuffer for her for X-mas. What do all of you think? Do you use the pens or your fingers? Which do you like better and why? TIA.

I have three devices and use both stylus and fingers.  A few months ago, I ordered a package of 12 stylus/pen combo.  Very reasonably priced.  Each individually wrapped in the box.

I keep a stylus in my purse with my iPod.  I like to use it when I need to sign my name on someone else's iPad like to buy something.  Everyone is impressed when I pull it out.  But I use my finger most of the itme on all my iPod and iPads.

Once again thank you all for your helpful and informative posts. We received the pen which was cheaply made which we brought back to Walmarts yesterday. We ordered from Amazon a pack of 12 universal pens which will make nice stocking stuffer's for some friends and family. And they will be coming tomorrow or Monday. Which was less then the one pen we brought from Walmarts. Woman Surprised

Cool.  

I believe a couple of us were questioning if she had an iPad Pro.

Apple has a special pen ('stylus') specific for the Pro,

bit since she has an iPad 2...it sounds like she will love what you got her!
