Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The unique PalmPoint Dual Action Stylus is also an easy-to-use pen. Just twist the top of the stylus to reveal the pen point and write as usual. To use your dual-action stylus, simply twist back to retract the pen nub and use the plastic stylus point. This is a must-have for any Palm V user and a great accessory for any other Palm handheld. (It attaches to the Palm V handheld, and it works on any other Palm handheld too.)

2.0 out of 5 stars What where they thinking, May 27, 2000

When I first saw the Dual Action Stylus, I thought "ofcource, how brilliant". So I when out a spend my hard earned money on this 30+ dollars assorie, for my loved Palm IIIx. But was I dissapointed. It's a bad (very bad), ordinary pen, and just a standard stylus for the Palm. A complete waste of money. Keep your stylus, and spend your money on a normal pen instead. (The only plus side is that it looks stunning).

1.0 out of 5 stars Facinating on looks, flimsy and ordinary as a pen, June 27, 2000

It's incredible how Palm co. could create this type of pen. It is very nice. It looks fabulous on my palm V. I works fine, the only detail is the function of the pen. When you trun the stylus to bring out the pen, it feels as if you can turn it all the way and break it a part. My stylus in fact, after two weeks of usage broke and I had to try to fix it and saw the whole inner functions of the pen. It is made all out of plastic, but not the hard good one, but instead the type of elastic, cheap plastic. I finally fixed it but i'm fully disapointed with this product. I still use it because the functionability of having a pen on my palm helps a lot. Before you buy it, you better take a look on it... feel it and try it.

2.0 out of 5 stars cool design, don't get it if you don't really need it, October 25, 2000

I got a palm vx and i always have it in my pocket with my keys. I got this pen b/c it fits very nicely with the palm. Since I was bring my palm wherever I go, may as well get a pen with it.

The design is great, fits just like part of your palm, but the price is kind of steep. 25 buck here for a tiny pen??, i got mine for 40bucks and felt kind of rib-off. It only comes with two refills. You CANNOT get the refills anywhere!!!
