I cannot use the stylie which came with my ipaq 4150. It's just too small for me and I'm not used to them.

so far I kind of liked Sanford Ph.D. Multi. (but haven't tried)
Since I've been using their pencils, I know that they are very comfy. Is anyone using one of them?

so which stylus do you guys recommend? It doesn't have to be a 3 in 1 or something like that. I just need something good which will fit into my hand...

Thanks

I have two of the Ph.D pen/pencil/stylus pens and love them. One is at my desk at all times, the other is often in my pocket. They're a little on the bulky side, but very comfortable to use for extended periods of time.

I've just found this:

"Paper Mate PhD 3-Function Multi Pen"

http://www.officemax.com/max/solutions/product/prodBlock.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&expansionOID=-536879559&prodBlockOID=536968630

looks almost the same, but I think it's thinner...do you know anything about it?

Because the OfficeMax site sucks, your link doesn't work. Searching their site for "paper mate phd" brings it up, though. Those look very similar to mine but the function icons on the barrel seem to indicate you don't have to twist quite as much to switch tips.

(Mine are also Paper Mate, by the way, not Sanford.)

I have the PHD pencil, and I love this lineup of the PHD writing utensils, such high quality :D

I've got my "Paper Mate PhD 3-Function Multi Pen" yesterday, and I'm so happy with it... :)

I use a PDA Panache stylus for my Axim and I also bought their Cross refill stylus to use in one of my pens.

The material they use feels just right for using on a Writeshield. It's nice to be able to use a real pen size stylus as well.
