    Been using the Paper app by Fifty Three for a while now, and was hoping I could get one of these:

    Shop Pencil | FiftyThree

    Anyone know how or where we can source these locally?

    I ordered mine directly from Fifty Three's online store last Dec. 5 (shipping via JAC). It has not yet been shipped until now. Production yield rates must be quite low.

    Not yet shipped? I was already contemplating on getting one directly through Fifty Three but now I'm having second thoughts given their long wait times...

    Saw a couple off ebay but prefer to source it locally...

    I gave up on Adonit products after my Jot Pro scratched my screen protector. Its very precise and sleek, such a shame it tends to scratch the screen protector. Ive tried low quality to high end screen protectors- they all got scratched.

    How was it? Is the palm protection effective? This is the main reason why I'm still staying away from styluses. Writing doesn't feel natural cause I can't rest my palm on the screen.
