Whaat? That doesn't make any sense at all.
Call 1-800-THE-SHACK. Order the deluxe stylus (they are out of the
plain styli) cost is $5.99. I just verified this with them.
DAPARISH> Whats a suitable alternative? I'm carefully using a
DAPARISH> ball point pen with the nylon cap in place at
DAPARISH> present.
I use a Bic Click pen unclicked (the promotional kind, they're all
plastic, including the ferrule) My company happens to buy these on
promo (with the 3Com name cheekily emblazoned thereon) but they're
available just about everywhere. Look for the Bic name on the ferrule
and the little "Bic Guy" on the top of the clip. (I *do* have a screen
condom on my Zoomer, but this thing doesn't seem to scratch any more
than the Zoomer stylus)
