I've been looking at this cute little black chair at
this site, but am hesitant to get it.
Interesting site, but why on earth are they selling styluses if the intercept goes by capacitance? I guess there is a sucker born every minute...
I looked at the stylus they are selling. The look an awfully lot like the iphone ones we sold at Sears a while back.
You'll notice they are not pointy like a pen, but rather round like a finger. It's got something in the tip that makes the screen work as if your finger was on it. So... they are designed to work on a capacative screen, and I've had no issues with the one designed for the iphone when using it with my intercept. It's handy when it's really cold and you don't want to take your gloves off to make a call, assuming you can get the stylus out of your pocket without taking a glove off either...
"A standard stylus cannot be used for capacitive sensing unless it is tipped with some form of conductive material, such as anti-static conductive foam. However, capacitive styli—different from standard styli—can be used as well as finger input on capacitive screens"

I'm rethinking my earlier statement... thank you for this info!!
