The D2's stylus is kind of an ingenius device because it serves as a stand as well. But there is no convenient way to tote it along unless you want to tie it to the unit itself. I don't plan to do that. I've been using Palm devices with touch screens for years, and I've always used a combination pen/stylus.

The stylus/pen I use only costs $3.99. Twist the barrel one way and it writes in your choice of ink colors (you choose the color you want when ordering). Twist the barrel the other direction, and it's a stylus and you can tap away. I plan to carry both the D2 and the stylus in the same shirt pocket. I have not attached photos here before, but I have attempted to do so below. I hope it comes out okay. The web site to order is: http://heinrich.stores.yahoo.net/

I have ordered from them three times before. Good stuff! Oh yeah, if you do order one of these, order a few pen refills as well.

That's nothing for me to be honest, I'm the kind of person that twists the barrel to the wrong direction and starts writing on his Cowon ;).

I do have one of these kinds of pens for my PDA, it's quite nice indeed.

a nintendo DS Stylus could be good, their cheap (around 5 bucks for a 3 pack) and the size corresponds with the player,

Probably what I'll buy. I might also have a few extra Axim Sylus's around but they are a bit on the large size.

Fortunately, the stylus tip is a bight fluorescent orange. It keeps me from mistaking it for the ballpoint tip. BTW, did I mention this pen is pretty nice looking in person? It looks like it could cost 3X the price.

looks like a good idea, but I have a fear of writing on my cowon like Jereon. =)
