No you cannot use a stylus. It does not have a touch screen. Sounds like you may want a tablet or possibly a Nook. You can go to Barnes and Noble and they will show you all about the Nook.

Will it store the note as handwritten or does it convert it to typewritten text? I want to be able to take notes about the equipment I use in the gym and the various weight and position settings used. I'm leaning towards a larger screen so I can use it to read books/magazines/email and also use it for listening to music, the radio or in the gym listening to TV as I watch from the treadmill. -----Original Message----- From: pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pctechtalk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of CINDRA4@xxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2011 2:20 PM To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Tablet PC questions Don I have an Ipod Touch. If I can help you let me know. I also have the Nook color that has internet. I am not a big fan of the touch screen. I think it's hard to touch the right thing if the screen is too small. On the Nook you can flick your fingers and make the screen bigger which is nice.
