Ten One Design, a New York-based design firm specializing in solutions for the mobile lifestyle, announced that its Pogo Sketch and Pogo Stylus – the world’s first stylus compatible with the iPhone, iPod touch and MacBook trackpads – are fully compatible with the 9.7 inch capacitive touch screen display of iPad, the new Apple tablet.

The aluminum base and advanced material used on the tip of the Pogo Stylus and Pogo Sketch are what make them extraordinary and revolutionary for multi-touch displays. The touch screen tool acts as a bridge by transferring the signal from the display to the user’s hand, allowing the user to more accurately and efficiently control the capacitive touch sensitive screen of iPad.

The Pogo Sketch and Pogo Stylus are both ideal for detailed graphic artwork and enhancing the canvas-like display of the iPad, especially when used with applications like the Brushes app demoed during the media event.

The tip uses considerably less surface area than a fingertip, which makes navigating the user interface easier and more enjoyable. And people with longer fingernails or larger fingers will not experience gadget envy from not being able to use touch screen devices. The stylus easily glides across the screen and even keeps it free of smudges and grease.

The Pogo Stylus and Pogo Sketch are both available at TenOneDesign for $14.95; the Pogo Sketch is also available at Apple Stores
