Title: Stylus Pack for SL-5500
Post by: idzeeboo on February 18, 2004, 01:59:05 pm

After having searched far and wide, then having discovered that Office Depot has discontinued stocking the stylus for the Z, I finally hit gold.  PcConnection has them in stock and available for $8 (2-pack).  Only bummer is the $8 shipping! -- But at least they exist.
Sharp should update their Myzaurus site once in a while.

After reading all the horror stories on the Zaurus.com site (about stylii breaking off and worse damage when people tried to retrieve them), I\'ve taken to leaving my Z stylus alone and only use it for emergencies (like showing off).  I don\'t really like the tiny grip anyway.  For regular use, I found a dry stick of about 1cm in diameter, reasonalbly straight.  Sharpened in a pencil sharpener and filed a little so it\'s neither dangerous to me or to the Z, it\'s just the ticket.

You can also find the stylii on Amazon.  They say it is eligible for free shipping if the order is more than $25.
