Good iPad drawing app?

Can anybody recommend an iPad drawing app? Preferably one that uses a stylus.

Thanks...

SketchBook from Autodesk is awesome. I use a desktop version with my Cintiq.

Get Express to try for free, if you like it then you can spring for the Pro version.

An ipad is a Horrible device for sketching.

Any cap-sense screen will be horrible. They lack precision and lack pressure sensitivity.

If you are going to use the ipad for sketching the best tool is a something like a bike glove so that you don't confuse the device with palm hits.

Sketchbook Pro is the best with the most versatility but can be more complex

Paper is probably the easiest

Penultimate is pretty good for basic sketches and rough drawings. http://evernote.com/penultimate/

Pad and paper is still my favorite but a Cintiq comes pretty damn close in a lot of areas and beats it in a lot more.

Inflow because of the zoom and detail. Also paper 53 is good for the selection of "tools". YMMV.
