Where can i get a replacement stylus?
 
I'm down to one stylus, and i'd like a spare on hand.

I can't seem to find a reliable source for a proper replacement, specifically an OEM stylus.

I find these

http://www.thepocketsolution.com/PSI...li+3+Pack.html

3 for $20, which feels like a total rip. but as you can see, it's not the same stylus.

In fact, you'll see they photoshopped a Sprint logo on the GSM version. Nice.

I tried a forum search, but wasn't able to find anything definitive.

Just go into a local Sprint store and ask for one... They usually have a spare... Just say you lost your last one and you really need it.. Being polite and respectful will help you out immensely..

I agree with BD, a polite attempt at the Sprint Store is your best economic bet right now as the aftermarket world is pretty lean currently when looking for a TP stylus on the cheap.

i'll keep that in mind. i don't like the idea of hitting up the store for freebies, but if they're smart they pull the styli out of return/repair units for just such an occasion.

Actually, i can live without the stylus, but i don't like the hole that remains.
i think i'm going to file the little nub off the stylus so it's harder to remove accidentally.

The Sprint store sclosest to me never seems to have any kind of 'extra' anything around. And it is a 'repair center'. But they keep telling me that accessories for the Touch Pro are 'on the way'. (however, this is the store that didn't even get a the Diamond in until just before the Pro came out, and didn't even have the 'fake' phones for people to look at - so I don't think they are too 'with it' :)).

My local Sprint store has given me 2 styli for free. And a battery cover and a battery.

It depends how friendly they are.

Took me 3 stores and some serious flirting to get one....

So you were successful then? That's good to know... I may take my own advice and grab an extra one if I ever need it..

Just a heads up that Expansys' product 169458 ("HTC Touch Pro Stylus 3 Pack ST T270) is NOT the correct stylus for a Sprint TP. Waiting for my return credit form Expansys now.

The styli offered at

http://www.thepocketsolution.com/PSI...li+3+Pack.html

look like the same WRONG styli I bought from Expansys. They don't fit the Sprint Touch Pro. Still looking for the correct product. Check the attached file to see the difference.

I accidentally (yes, accidentally) kept my extra stylus when I exchanged my first phone. So I now have 2.

I have a 4-in-1 Fine Black Ink Pen, Pencil, Stylus, Red Ink Pen. I love the Stylus as it is much easier to hold than the tiny OEM one. My wife purchased it for me a couple of years ago as a gift from one of the mall stores. The best thing is that it is not much bigger than an average pen.

It is very similiar to this one, except red in color. http://www.stylusplus.com/stylus3ways.html

Great if you have very large hands.

Are you talking about one that fits in the slot on the TP?

I know there are tons of stylus/pens out there:

http://www.amazon.com/Platinum-Pen-A.../dp/B00004SZ9M

But that would cool if they could fit a pen/stylus in the original slot on the TP.
