But like chrisak says, fingernails are pretty darn good too if you have the right kind of fingernail.
I'd say "it's just a bit of plastic" sums it up nicely--the best styli I've used were made mostly of metal. (I've been using PDAs and smartphones--Palm OS in particular--for 10 years now.) Granted, this one looks to be a slightly bigger plastic "twig" than many, so that's a small plus.

I've used a fingernail on plenty of occasions too. Works well (I find) for a quick tap or two. Not so good for anything that involves repeated taps in quick succession.
