This is a great concept, a pen, reset pin, stylus in a small package that fits in the Palm itself!

Features:
  1. Stylus Pen
  2. Ball Point Pen
  3. Reset Pin
  4. * Fits most Palm Series, IBM Work Pad, Royal daVinci and Philips Nino organizers
  5. * Multi-Function stylus, ball point pen and handy reset pin
  6. * Spring action stylus tip
  7. * Available in translucent Blue, Green and Purple Neon colors
  8. * Stainless steel barrel
  9. * Refillable with Pilot RF8--BLKF Black Fine refills
  10. Additional Feature: With the spring loaded stylus tip, it's much quieter and easier to use.
Comments on Features:
All of the features are outstanding! Everything works well, and the tips screw into each other so you won't lose them.
Use (ease of / problems with):
Use is outstanding as well. Granted it is rather narrow and small, so for a writing instrument it takes some getting used to, but the convenience more than makes up for that!
Bugs/Defects:
The plastic used in the tip coverings is quite brittle. After just a short period of time, both have cracked and are loose and can't be tightened down. This is a major flaw!
Additional Comments:
Because of the plastic tips breaking, I wouldn't recommend this too highly. Need to find something a little more robust!
Likes:
Just about everything!!
Dislikes:
The cheap plastic tips make this a stylus that doesn't last long.
Who should buy:
Someone who like the concept and doesn't mind buying new ones about every month.
Who shouldn't:
Just about everyone.
Cost:
$12.95
