All PDA's should ship with this stylus!!!, October 8, 2000
This review is from: PDA Panache Triple Function Stylus (Chrome) (Office Product)
I have had mine since Jan 2000 and it has been nearly trouble free. None of the problems with pencil that the previous reviewer had. The rubber grip on mine is just starting to show a little wear, but it doesn't effect my use of it. Since this is the only pen that I carry, it has held up extremely well. The ball point pen is one of the best that I have used. No skipping or ink dots, just smooth, consistant writing. Another thing that I realy like is that the stylus tip seems to be made of a harder material than many others, such as the Cross. This became an issue when I began using the WriteRight screen protectors. The Cross stylus was being ground down and leaving residue on the protector, which has a slightly course texture, and was very difficult to write fast with. The Panache tip felt like I was writing with a regular pen on paper and did not rub of or wear as the Cross stylus did. Overall, this is a great tool. There are three marking at the top of the pen: an orange dot, a black dot and a 0.5. You lean the pen to the side with the dot of the tip you would like to use facing up, press the top, and you get the tip you want. The stylus tip is bright orange, so there is no mistaking it for the pen or pencil. It really blows people away when they see you writing on paper in ink, then you switch over to the Palm with just a click.

Great multi purpose device with some problems, June 7, 2000
This review is from: PDA Panache Triple Function Stylus (Chrome) (Office Product)
I received this pen for Christmas because I was cramping up my hand writing with the stylus included in my Palm III. I didn't want to carry a pen, pencil, and the tiny stylus. It is a great pen with a few flaws. The rubber grip coating is not durable enough and mine has been gouged and stratched off in a few spaces. The pencil tip unscrews itself and falls off in the pen regularly and the pencil mechanism jams easily. Also the eraser is small and I have not found replacements yet. The pen and stylus point are top notch. Overall it is a usefull tool and much more comfortable than the basic stylus but it could use some more work.

Great, but with some flaws, October 27, 2001
This review is from: PDA Panache Triple Function Stylus (Chrome) (Office Product)
This multifunction stylus is a great unit, dont get me wrong, carrying around three sticks in your pocket can get quite uncomfortable at times. But I do have some gripes about this unit. The grip on it really isnt a grip, and I found that it slipped out of my hands sometimes till I bought a little foam grip to slip over the black portion of the barrel, costing less than a quarter. And the ink on the barrel can rub off, but by the time it does you memorize which way to hold the pen to get your desired function. And sometimes I find that my lead is broken when I try to use the pen, like it gets broken if you leave lead in the barrel. Aside from the gripes, the weight is GREAT for this pen. It sure doesnt feel light and plastic-y like the stylus on my M105. The orange tip makes it great for visiblity especially with screen protectors. The snap function is also great, easy to use, and the pen and pencil functions work well most of the time. Overall, A great starter unit, and it is built to last.
