Default Stylus for Full Keyboard in Portrait mode

Please Login to Remove!

Today I read a post that talked about using a stylus on a touch screen and it reminded me of my old HP organizer I had years ago and I did some research. A lot of people have complained about the new portrait full keyboard in v.90 being a little tight. Well why not use a stylus seeing its a one finger operation. I wrote to Pogo stylus, a company who makes a stylus for the IPhone, and asked him if they were compatable with the storm and this is the reply I got. "Yes, the Pogo Stylus & Pogo Sketch work great with the Storm. We've been a little slow on promoting the application". I think I will order it. Anyone try this yet?

Yes sir I did in a reply. Just thought I would run it by the rest of the forum. I would like to get some more thoughts on the subject.

Don't bother for your storm.......Tis "heat sensitive" thus a Stylus wont be too helpful.Granted They say it will work,I don't but it :p

Plus, what would the point be? If you're using a stylus, then you would still be using two hands, therefore you just as well type in landscape mode. Just my .02.

I looked at the website, and it claims it works on the iphone. That is also a heat sensitive device. So I imagine it could work with the Storm, somehow it must generate warmth on the tip of the stylus. The only thing it might be nice for is those of us who live in a cold climate and wear gloves in the winter. It would prevent us from having to take them off. However, it seems kinda clunky on the side of the device.

It's NOT heat sensitive... It is a capacitive screen.

I have it, the tip is rubbery and hollow and it works, quite well actually. And no the Storm does not have to be held for it to work, it works while lying on a flat surface.
