Customer Reviews

Great product!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GREAT!!!! The feeling is rigth, the weigth is rigth and it fits perfectly! It comes with caps for Tungsten E and Zire 72

Perfect
I bought this 3-pack despite the negative reviews here. Visually, there is almost no difference between these and the original stylus. These are lighter than the original stylus (which I thought was overly heavy anyway), but are still comfortable, with a metal shaft. The fact that a pen is included more than makes up for any loss in weight. The reset pin is kind of useless since you can just use the stylus itself to reset a TX, but it could come in handy for resetting someone else's Palm. It comes with interchangeable snap-on caps so that they will work with some other Palm models (Tungsten E/E2 and Zire 72).

For my old Palm I paid $12 for the Pentopia stylus with a pen, and for the same price you get 3. I liked the Pentopia's springloaded stylus tip, but this one is fixed, just like the original. Also I don't think these are refillable, but I don't use this often enough to run out of ink, just when I don't have a pen handy.

This is a great product, don't be scared away by the bad reviews.

UPDATE: After a year I am still on the first of my three styluses, so they are durable. The pen runs dry under heavy use, but then works again later. Where the tip end screws into the shaft, it gets loose, so I put some glue on the threads to help hold it in place. The cap on the pen still snaps firmly in place.

Not the best design for such a multi-functionally cool item
I'm not a negative person, in fact I try to see the best in most everything but when it came to actually USING these stylus with my Palm TX it JUST WASNT WORKING.

Frustratingly the stylus easily slid in its holding area in my unit but when it was needed, when sliding it out, it ALWAYS separated before actually COMING out of the holder.

I have identified the problem: the interchangeable 'head' or top piece (used to adapt this stylus to other units) which simply SNAPS on should actually be a screwed on piece as, with use, the SNAP part fails and thus it no longer functions as one piece causing the problems mentioned above.

TWO of the three stylus dont hold when removed from the handheld (failing snap part).

FRUSTRATINGLY I've switched back to my original stylus knowing I have only ONE operational backup stylus even though I purchased a three pack.
