Re: Boxwave Styra Ball Point Pen/OEM Stylus

I have used Boxwave Styra's since my original Sony Clie s300. However Seidio also makes pen/stylus replacements (and their innocase and holster is the best around imho too), the difference is they usually make them extend-able, and they are cheaper ($9 vs $13). On styluses that are stock extend-able like the one for my Titan, they added an extra 3rd extension to make it about 1/2" longer which made a big difference in usability. So I prefer the Seidio ones now as such and that's what I used in my Titan. I have large hands (i'm 6'1", my hand is ~20 cm from wrist to tip of middle finger) - and I find the stock stylus on the TP2 to be the smallest in length and diameter of any I've used to date (and as such, the worst). However, since the device is out of the box is so finger friendly I'm sure they didn't figure the stylus was that important anymore, and really it isn't, I hardly even used mine on my Titan once I applied a lot of finger friendly tweaks.

So I'm going to hold out until Seidio lists one, if they don't make one, or if it's not extend-able or cheaper, i'll order a boxwave one for sure.
