Default Replacement stylus with pen!

Edit: This stylus does not have a pen as originally stated. (See my next post below for details.)

Remember the joy with which we all reacted when PDA Panache released their metal styli for the e310/e330/e740 a few months ago? I just stopped by the Pocket Solutions Web site (the folks that brought us the "Cover-Up") and noticed that they have a metal stylus with a pen under the screw-off cap! In the photo it looks identical to the PDA Panache stylus. Having just recently purchased the PDA Panache stylus, I can't really justify buying another stylus at this time. Anyone want to buy one and let us know what it's like?

The link you provided did not mention anything about having a pen. I also checked the main link and saw no mention of a pen. Given that they look identical and that the Pocket Solutions price is about $2 more than PDA Panache charges, I'm guessing that Pocket Solutions is just reselling it.

Yes, it's listed in the pens/stylus category, but I think that's just a catch-all area if they ever offer pens.

Default Okay, turns out there is no pen.

I also posted this in Brighthand's e740 forum yesterday and Mike DiLeo replied to it today:

So really it did say there was a pen, I swear!
