I don't think you'll find any fine-point stylus for a capacitive (multi-touch) screen. They're not designed for fine-point access. As an artist, I prefer fine-control, so that's one reason I've opted for a cheaper, resistive (single-touch) screen; I've had a fine-point pen/stylus combination for years that I used originally on an HP Jornada PDA.

I've found that for drawing the best stylus is the Dagi. A clear disc of plastic touches the screen, but you see through it, as if you were drawing with a fine point. For games where you might tap the screen with some force, I use the hollow rubber tipped AYL, just don't like the sound of the relatively hard plastic of the Dagi hitting the screen. Paulsam7, as you can see from my avatar, I make exotic wood styli with nylon nibs for resistive screens, I still use them on my Tapwave Zodiac.

Capacitive screens CAN use capacitive styli. Adonit and Dagi are two that were recommended to me. I use a cheap Pogo that I got on Amazon but it is always about 2mm away from where I think I am pressing. So it can make it annoying when annotating textbooks and all of a sudden instead of underling i am crossing out! 
i plan to buy an Adonit Job this Christmas. a bit pricey but they will attach to the tablet without scratching it or getting lost in my backpack.

I wanted to amend my original post to say that I now think that the Adonit Jot is the best stylus for drawing or writing! It is similar to the Dagi, except instead of having the plastic disc attached to a spring, it is a ball and socket, much better engineering.

No Way!
For the price, I'm tempted to try it too, but from my knowledge of capacitive styli, there is no way that it could work. Since I seem to be into amendments, after using the stylus some, I really like the rubber (AYL) and dielelectric iFaraday) styluses better than the Jot (plastic disc)! Just the sound and feel of the hard plastic disc against the glass is a similar experience of nails on a chalkboard. Maybe it's just me!

We-e-l-l-l, I did buy it, but after googling "ithrough review," may never see it! Oh well, at least I'll only be out $2.49. If it does come...and actually works, I'm going to post rave reviews and an apology!
