People who know me well now that I like drawing. I've a shed load of pens, pencils and other drawing materials that I have accumulated over the years. A relatively recent addition to this has been the iPad, and the accompanying drawing apps.
Drawing on a device like an iPad is something I like. I used to scribble sketches on my Apple Newton. The iPad is different to that device in so much as it is designed to detect the finger, not a pointed stick. I have tried drawing with my fingers on the iPad, but found that unintuitive. I needed a pen of some kind. So right off the bat, I knew that I could not press my spare Newton stylus into service as a drawing aid. So the search for a stylus that I could use for drawing began. He is my run down of the styli I have currently auditioned.

I had a lot of interest in the Lego ZX81, you may be interested to know that I’ve also been working on others as well in Lego’s Digital Designer software. Some are closer to completion than others. Here’s what I currently have on file. Will they make it to real Lego models? Hopefully, yes. Sadly Lego closed down the service that gave me a proper kit in January, so I’d have to order future models brick by brick. No exciting box or instructions!

The Lego ZX81 has certainly triggered some interest. With over 40,000 hits on my Flicker Stream this weekend alone, I'm now finding that it's being blogged about too. This is excellent news, and I'd like to say thanks to those whow have passed the links around. Anyway, as I find them, so I'll mention them here.

Yesturday, my Lego ZX81 kit arrived. Until very recently, Lego have run a programme where you can design a model in their Lego Digital Designer software, upload it and have a proper set sent to you, complete with instructions and a custom box.
