Title: Lost my Stylus
Post by: NYCLinuxer on November 15, 2003, 01:47:44 pm

Does anybody know where I could get a new Stylus for my Zaurus SL-5500? OfficeDepot has discontinued their product mentioned on myzaurus.com. All I can find in the net is this crapy plastic thing from amazon.

I want to have my nice metal stylus back.

Thanks for your help.

Anything Z can be purchased from www.myzaurus.com.  For Styluseseseses (Stylii?) head over here (http://www.myzaurus.com/acc_Stylus.asp).

I went to Staples and bought a 3 pack of Palm Tungsten E stylii for about $7 US.  It sticks out about 2 MM from the slot of my 5500.  I\'m a stylus biter, so these replacements worked out well since I broke my original Z stylus.

I know http://www.myzaurus.com (http://www.myzaurus.com). Thank you. The thing is that the OfficeDepot shown as manufacturer has discontinued this stylus.

I have found some on http://www.trisoft.de/zzubehr.htm (http://www.trisoft.de/zzubehr.htm). I\'ll have to buy some next time I\'m in Europe.

Any other source would be appreciated.

hey --- I\'m in Manhattan as well... if you of any resources or can find any, just drop me a note
and I\'ll update some pages with references.   I\'m not much into gadgets, so I\'m not familiar with all the outlets such as J&R, etc.

Hey Scott

Cool, maybe we could meet some day and have Zaurus day/talk/beer or whatever.
