I have purchased this directly from the company, very interesting and excellent product, i have asked if it can be used for rock climbing and other questions and the company had answered me directly and with no problems, like anything that is purchased, it has its uses, if you use it for something not meant you are risking everything. Be safe.

Please forgive my somewhat philosophical title of this review... I've given a lot of thought to this product, and I really like it. However, it is not without some shortcomings. What is fascinating however, is that as soon as you pick it up, you realize that this is an incredibly high-end piece of equipment, that overcomes an incredible number of limitations to accomplish something wonderful.

The iPad has been out for almost 4 years, and from the very beginning, people have asked for a small, pen-sized stylus. Initially, there was discussion that it was simply not possible given the way that the touch capacitance display operates: in short, it is designed for a fingertip, not a tiny stylus! And the different styluses on the market, of which I have tried eight or nine, tend to be about the size of a pencil eraser: far from elegant and no better than the fingertip for most tasks.

I am huge fan of Evernote, and have been using it since the very beginning. When I heard that they had joined up with Adonit to create this product, I was intrigued. I still remembered the last version of this product, that looked so promising until you realized that it required a small, transparent plastic disc at the tip of the stylus, which seemed to deflate everyone's balloon of excitement.

But, in this product, the Jot script, they did it! And I can tell you, they really fulfilled the promise of a pressure sensitive, precise, and elegant stylus for the iPad!

Remarkably, you simply power it on and it just works. I was able to swipe and navigate my iPad without doing anything special. When I got to the Penultimate app, it really showed how elegant it could be. Amazingly like my handwriting, and incredibly precise - truly down to the tip! - This was a pleasure to use. I can say, however, that having been without such a stylus for so long, I am now pretty comfortable typing on the iPad's small keyboard, and using voice dictation more than ever before. But, the penultimate app is beautifully set up for rapid notetaking, and even has an ingenious typewriter-like method of scrolling to the right automatically as you write to keep pace with you.

My only caveats are that there is a slight delay when writing, which does make it feel a little less elegant than I would've hoped. Also, despite the excellent palm rejection technology, occasionally I found that my palm activated a page turn, which was a little bit annoying.

I recently purchased the thicker, more traditional stylus called Pencil, for use with the excellent drawing app called Paper. That stylus is slightly more difficult to use, and requires a synchronization step within the app. However, it does seem more responsive with respect to lag time, which does make a difference when drawing or writing quickly. It has nowhere near the precision of the Jot, however, but for its purpose is quite excellent. While the Jot now uses a standard AAA battery, the Pencil has an integrated USB connector that allows you to recharge a small internal battery. I honestly feel that both are incredible feats of engineering. However, I can say that the Jot Script is particularly impressive because it fulfills a promise that so many have attempted but failed to achieve in the past.

In sum, this is a remarkable piece of technology that mostly fulfills its goals. It is very possible, with future software updates, that it will become even smoother and a more seamless experience. As it stands, however, I think that this is  the best way that I know of to get handwritten notes into your iPad. Despite this technological high watermark, it pains me that I am not elated with this product. It is almost as if they have climbed a very high mountain with many difficult passes. But that, having reached the top, one realizes that this was not necessarily the best mountain to climb in the first place.

An amazing product - one I've had for about a month and have enjoyed enormously - my only suggestion is a place to make notes not tied to a specific book or article - or maybe I haven't found it yet - that's certainly possible.  I like the ability to get email via the Kindle - tho this seems to be restricted to Gmail.  All in all, it's a fabulous product and any problems are quickly solved by a phone call - had one, the Kindle wireless wasn't turned on initially - a phone call fixed that in a timely manner.  I would and have recommended it to friends and strangers !

It truly is an amazing product. I'm a real person in SoCal, USA and I haven't been this impressed by a product in a long time. It's so cool how it just seemingly magically clings to the window. It's so easy to deal with. And three for nearly $11 is a bargain. The packaging can be re-used for stuff too. Very, very cool!

Only room for improvement is I wish it was less crumply looking. For all the good things about it, I accept that trade off.

I very rarely write reviews, but I've enjoyed and appreciated this product so much that I wanted to add my two cents. Overall, it's an excellent idea for a product, well-executed, a product that I find makes me want to use it more, with a few minor inconveniences.

In terms of what it's supposed to do, tell you the temperature, I've found that it did it's job and is accurate. Also, having the combination of the temperature on a large display on the unit and on my phone made it extremely easy to keep track of the temperature. Having used it in multiple situations (one probe, two probes in the same food item, two probes going into different food items) I found it worked perfectly every time. Since my oven can be temperamental about having an accurate temperature, having something I can literally set and walk away from is extremely helpful.

I have a few minor quibbles with it that reflect including what other people have said about it. I found the Bluetooth connection to disconnect sooner than what is advertised. Granted, this could be my home and any interference in the home, but it appears to be less than advertised. If you're like me, you don't wonder too far from the kitchen when cooking so  it's Bluetooth range is far from a deal breaker for me. Second, syncing my phone (or my wife's phone) with the thermometer seems to either take a long time and/or multiple attempts. When my wife went to use it for the first time, it took multiple attempts. For me, the app recognizes the thermometer immediately but seems to take a long time to sync (more than a minute).

Lastly, this is a very expensive thermometer when you compare it to a traditional food thermometer. You can pick a food thermometer for low price, so this kind of purchase might seem spendy. I purposely waited for the price to drop before I purchased it (~$55), and even then I wonder if I was spending too much money. But, the convenience of it, especially if you are cooking multiple things at the same time allows you to focus other things while your food cooks. I find that I use this thermometer repeatedly and more than my traditional food thermometer because of how useful it has been. For me, that made any issue with the price disappear.

We found this product on Amazon, later read very good reviews about it and now we are enjoying our very own Roxant gimbal. It is really super cool! My husband is an independent documentary director in Hungary. He and his crew are currently working with it. Their work, and the quality of their videos improved a lot. They really like the size of it, since it is quite compact and they can start shooting almost instantly, once they arrived on the set, since assembling it with a camera is very quick. The company is very professional, they have answered all of our questions almost immediately and they have a bunch of very useful video guides which I think everybody, who is even remotely interested should check out.
Their company logo and name will most certainly on the thank you list of the full length documentary film my husband is making.

Excellent product! it's been used continually over the past 3 months at our Auto Shop, the Mechanics have been impressed by it's performance.
I have only 1 issue, the lenses are made of plastic, and the padded tubes aren't as secure as I would have liked, out of the box (a bit of hot glue solved this...;) )
The plastic lenses were extremely susceptible to some of the chemicals that we use.
I would like to see a model where the lenses are glass/chemical resistant, and seal the parabolic reflector (in environments filled with chemical spray I could see the reflector being tarnished, quickly).
I give it 5 stars because it's quite an ingenuous and well thought out design, the magnetic base works excellently especially because it's padded, it bends comfortably and holds it's position well.
I've even used this to assist with nighttime very low light driving in the bush.
Great product, perfect with some very minor modifications.
