Replacement Stylus - From A Non-zaurus Pda?
« on: January 24, 2005, 07:39:41 am »
Hi there,

I realise there are lots of other threads on where to get a Zaurus stylus, but I'm more interested to find out what other PDA-specific stylus will work in a Zaurus, specifially for my SL-C860.

A few questions - and having this in the one thread is going to make things much easier for those in the future searching:

- Is the Stylus different for each different clamshell model (for example a SL-C700 to a SL-C860?)

- Is the Stylus for the clamshell models different from the ones for other Zaurus models (SL-5600, etc)?

- What other PDA's out there have stylus's that fit the SL-C860?  i.e. ipaq XXX, palm XXX, etc?

- If you have bought a stylus for your Z, that was designed for a different PDA, can you comment on how well they fit, if any modifications had to be made?

I say this because I lost my stylus *again*; ordering a replacement stylus from overseas takes too long.  I'd just love to walk into a local PDA shop here and buy something straight away that would work.

Thanks.

Apparently all the same stylii work in all the Zaurii.  I'm using a stylus for the Treo from expansys http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=116661

That being said, it's just a bit too small, so I have to push it into the slot.  But, the stylii work perfectly beyond that point.
