I just got the iFaraday stylus for $12 and its great so far. The tip is made of cloth and slides great on the screen while wiping off fingerprints. It works with barley any pressure, even on the soft menu and back buttons. So if your looking for the perfect stylus I think I found it.
what do you use it for?
I mostly use it for swype text input, I can get up to 40 words per min
I guess its not the greatest stylus for drawing, but I wouldn't know because I never draw

I was thinking of getting a stylus for my phone, but it's not like the Note where there is a place to put it, it has to be carried around in a pocket.
It's too much of a pain since I would probably forget it all the time.

That's a good point. I really only use it at home. I don't use it on the go. Some have that plastic piece that fits in your 3.5mm headphone jack on a tie on the stylus which is a decent solution

is the tip sharp enough for draw... say in S memo?
or its tip as big as finger

I bought one of these awhile ago, for drawing... and the JOT is how you do a precise stylus. anything else (as far as I have tried) is like drawing with a piece of sidewalk chalk.

Agreed--I just bought one of these as well, and was pleased that (notwithstanding some warnings) it works quite well even through my Skinomi screen protector. Makes Graffiti entry quite reliable too. Not only that, but I bought the Mini version, and it fits in the other pocket of my SIII's belt case, so I can carry it everywhere. {ProfJonathan}

So I bought this case before knowing that the magnet would screw up my Note. After a bit of online research, I came up with the idea of installing a snap fastener button in place of the magnet (just like the Mastige series). Looking through Etsy, I found this set of buttons:
http://www.etsy.com/transaction/71729266"]http://www.etsy.com/transaction/71729266"]http://www.etsy.com/transaction/71729266
This type of fastener is probably the more flattened type of snap fasteners. And it looks more elegant as well.
Taking the magnet out was a pain since they were glued on a piece of paper and there were 2 of them each side. Here is the final result:

This is the style man.
Looks hot.
Nice mod looks totally like it was made that way.
Looks good. Have to say I love the aged leather but I'm not big on the studs or embossing. My ideal case would be that one that looks like a leather bound book but they only make them for idevices
In what way did the magnet cause issues? Mine has a magnet clasp, not Mega strong though

supposedly affect s-pen accuracy. i have a small magnet on the back of my casing too, for the kickstand, but have not seen averse effects in s-pen accuracy
From what I gathered, the magnet would not cause any immediate effect due to its relative weak strength. However, over time, the S-Pen and the touch screen would be affected. I would not take any chance to find out how severe the problem will be.
is there hard evidence of this?

Nothing concrete, but you can find the detail right here:

i have tested this with the *#0*# Sensors, and Magnetic sensor (assuming this is pointing to magnetic north) moves with my case where my magnet points to. dayum, this is a good excuse for a new case!
I am actually planning to do the exact same thing as you. Except I have the Prestige Origami Diary Series instead (attached below).
Any hints or tips that you could share as to how you went about it? I have checked your supplier link for the buttons (nice find!) and plan to purchase from them the exact same set as well. Seems like there are some useful tools included in the package already, like the button presser / holder thing.
Just a couple of quick questions if you don't mind...
How did you remove the magnets itself from inside the leather? Because I assume you cut into the leather through the top layer with a scalpel of some sort, and somehow pulled it out with tweasers?
What sort of adhesive did you use to secure the buttons in place? Using some sort of glue or just the pressure of the buttons locked together?
How long roughly did this whole process take you?
case
i may be wrong but i am using Zenus Vintage for few month already and havent noticed any problems yet...
Can you post a how to please?
Weird, i have the exact same case and it comes without magnet..
I have a snap fastener fitted originally

There are two versions. You have the latest one.
Where do you buy the new version?
EDIT: Found it at http://zenuscaseusa.com/samsung-galaxy-note-prestige-vintage-g-note-diary.html
the funny thing is that i bought this case with magnetic closure a few days ago without knowing that there is a version with a snap fastener. The good thing is that i bought it for 27.99 dollars from ebay.com. i guess i will have to apply a snap fastener myself.
this is the case found on this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747091#
Okay so i just got the case today
My first impression was it looks pretty cool.
Inspecting the case more, i find the quality to be pretty good. It doesnt feel cheap, not at all.
The case is easy to put on, but hard to take off. What I'm saying is, it doesnt feel like the second piece of the case would fall out of it at all.
The first layer of the case is made of Silicone. The second is hard plastic with silicone top on it which gives it more grip on your hand and wouldnt slip when put on top of a table, etc.
The case feels solid and grippy. it has holes for the mic and noise cancellation mic. The case has a cover for the 3.5mm which is great but not for the micro usb(expected that anyways).
The volume and power button are easy to press and gives you a nice feedback. Its really great
There is only one problem that i came across with the case, though its not really a big deal.
The hole for the micro usb port is too small for the charger that came with the phone. But if you force it in, it should go in DEEP.
I have a spare cable like this one so everything is all good

For $6 this case is a total beast.
Quality is great and it looks pretty slick.
9/10
just got my other case today.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/330759812700?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649
The case looks fantastic, though. Its hard to put on, like super hard. You have to force it to fit.
What i like about it is that it looks better than the the one similar to it. I like how the charging port is bigger as well.
Only problem i have with it is that fitting, its not easy and requires a lot of force to get it fitted.
Check out the pictures.

This.
If there's anything I hate more than snot dripping down my nose in a snowstorm, is not being able to use my phone while out in the cold. Back before capacitive touchscreens it wasn't too complicated of an endeavor to place a phone call because you could bang your fingers on the buttons to make a phone call through your gloves. Now it is more complicated than an adult trying to open a child-proof pill bottle.
Newer Technology hopes to change all that. Ok, maybe not the snot dripping thing (or the child-proof pill bottle problem for adults), but they have come up with some gloves which enable you to use your touchscreen while out in the cold AND keep your fingertips from going numb. They call them "NuTouch Gloves" and they are available for purchase on Amazon. They market these for iCrap devices, but they obviously work just as well on all touchscreen devices.
These gloves do in fact work. I am able to slide my finger across my Galaxy S III and Note 10.1 just as if my fingers were naked. I haven't once had an issue with having to duplicate a swipe or a touch due to these gloves thanks to the special electricity-conducting fibers on the finger tips. I did, however, have issues with my hands becoming cold as these gloves are not very thick. They also make my hands more slick, thus causing me to lose control of my phone a few times. Luckily no damage was done, but my life flashed before my eyes a few times. Even with a rubber case on my phone it was still slick.
Overall for the price you can get these for at Amazon, roughly ~$10USD, they are a bargain and make a great gift.

Worth buying, and which is recommended for online store?
How's the stitching on them? I have a pair of touch screen gloves but they were cheap, 3 dollars from ebay, and the stitching is horrible! And they're the ones with the silver tips so it says to the world "hey i'm using touch screen gloves". .. ugly. Thanks for the review. I may consider these.

"Cuh-hold"? "Coould"? What is this "cold" of whence you speak? It's ~60 out- a bit chilly for the morning, but it's still a little early yet!
... but seriously, thanks for the review; I've got family back East that could probably use a few pair of these.
