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 (http://www.pdapanache.com/) released their metal styli for the e310/e330/e740 a few months ago? I just stopped by the Pocket Solutions Web site (http://www.thepocketsolution.com/) (the folks that brought us the "Cover-Up") and noticed that they have a metal stylus with a pen (http://66.155.8.4/merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=PS&Product_Code=PSSP-1303&Category_Code=P) 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 (http://www.thepocketsolution.com/merchant2/merchant.mv?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=PS&Category_Code=P) 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.

I also posted this (http://discussion.brighthand.com/showthread.php?s=&postid=412717) in Brighthand's e740 forum yesterday and Mike DiLeo replied to it today:
I read your post and had to go back and modify the description of the Toshiba stylus. This stylus is from the same manufacturer of the Panache stylus and should not say there is a pen inside. Anyone who ordered this stylus will be notified via email and given the option to have the stylus removed from their order.
So really it did say there was a pen, I swear! ;)
