Do you use the stylus?
 
I pretty much found it impossible to not use the stylus on the TP1, Touch, Mogul, and 6700. However, with the combination of TF3D & the WVGA screen, I haven't pulled the stylus out once. In fact, I'm actually able to use the on-screen keyboard for quick messages, which I also found impossible before. I've also noticed that my screen is still in perfect condition, even without a screen protector. I think the use of a stylus is a guaranteed scratch waiting to happen.

So I'm curious, has anyone else abandoned the stylus?

Brand new out of the box, the stylus felt like it was scratching the screen (but it wasn't), so now I use my finger.

I still use it occasionally, mostly in Opera.

I will not buy a phone without one since my Treo 600. This is why I was actually happy about the type of touchscreen with the TP2. If you think about it, much more detail can be added to a screen when there's a stylus involved so you can get more exact clicks.

There's really only so much you can do with just your thumb.

That's pretty much my take and I have small hands.

i hate the idea of a stylus... even on older devices i didn't use it, but it's definitely easier with the tp2. i only use it for programs that pretty much require it like drawing apps and handwriting recognition.

unfortunately my styles did place a small scratch on the screen (using Google maps)... I quickly picked up the Zagg Universal and did a rudimentary job putting it on... Now to get a real screen protector.

And yes, I still use the stylus occasionally.
