Default Give Someone a Stylus With Style

If you're still looking for some gift ideas for the Pocket PC lover in your life, the folks at MetalStyli.com have some suggestions -- and some savings!



From now through January 1, 2004, MetalStyli is offering their stainless steel Ipaq Antenna Styli for up to 50% off.

"The styli are made from single pieces of high quality stainless steel and have replaceable tips. And, they are ball blasted and then polished to give a perfect finish. You also have the choice of the standard version or the Grippy. The standard version sticks closely to the original lines of the Ipaq Antenna, while the Grippy model is slimmed down even more to allow for a black silicone grip, for extra comfort."

To take advantage of the holiday savings, just be sure to get the right coupon code from the product page before proceding through the checkout.

Whoa! Just went to their site and saw their precious metal styli. 8O
Now I know what to wish from Santa!

I'm a happy owner of the standard 3x-5xxx stylus and do warmly recommend the product. I have tried a lot of different styli, but none comes even close to this one! Most feels like toothpicks after having used one of theese.

But be warned! If you use a metal stylus for an extended time, you may end up making the decision about what PPC to buy next, depend on wheter you can reuse your stylus or not. :lol:

A platinum stylus for $4,000 would be a nice present from Santa.

Back in the late '90s I bet they could have sold quite a few. I think I'll be sticking with my trusty PDA Panache for a while though.

Love their styli! Bought two of them for my 5550.

Quality is excellent and the grippy version doesnt slip around in your hand.

Actually, since they are giving a percentage off, you can buy for the next ipaq you will be purchasing ahead of time. That is if you know for sure you are getting a particular model, then you can invest in the stylus

Are you sure? I'm getting a 4150 for Xmas and I noticed that it is not included in the sale price? I really like the description of the metal with rubber grip, just wish they had it for the 4150.

Why not email them and ask if they do support your model?

No harm in trying!
