5.0 out of 5 stars Styli for the stylish, June 11, 2000

By	Tan Kit Hoong "mentat" (Kuala Lumpur, Selangor Malaysia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Handspring Visor Stylus Rainbow Pack is the stylus that should have come with the Handspring Visor Deluxe.

It comes in five colours to fit any Visor of any colour.

The advantage these styli have over the standard stock stylus that comes with the Visor is that they are made of metal and have a nice heft to it when you write.

The coolest thing about the Rainbow styli is that they all have a reset pin integrated into the stylus body (something glaringly missing in the stock stylus. Just unscrew the writing tip and there it is. This is about the most important part of the stylus and will save you when your Visor hangs on you.

A surprise is that when you unscrew the other end of the stylus, you get a very nice Philips screwdriver that can be used to open your Visor, if necessary. I found that the screwdriver also works really well for tightening the screws on my glasses! :)

3.0 out of 5 stars A little touch of diversity for your Visor, June 29, 2000

By	Sander Claassen (Amsterdam, the Netherlands) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When I bought my Visor, I also decided to buy the stylus rainbow pack. The main reason was that I thought it would be looking cool to have a different color of stylus based on the mood of the day. My Visor's color (ice) is rather neutral, so all of the 5 colors would probably add that little extra.

Another reason of course was to always have a spare stylus (or more) in case of losing one.

In practice, I found out that I do not change them at all. I picked my favorite color (blue) and use it all the time. All the other ones are somewhere in a box. I am not going to carry around a spare stylus in case I need it.

In general, I advise not to buy the rainbow pack right away when you buy your visor, which already has a stylus included of course. Realise that when you buy the rainbow pack, you have a total of 6, of which one color is double.

Wait a while and see if you would like to have another color and/or some spare ones. The fact that there are 5 in the pack and all in different colors may seem not ideal. Probably you want to have just one extra stylus and only in the color of your choice. But on the other hand, it may be nice to buy a pack together with some friends or colleagues. You could exchange them once in a while (as long as they don't chew on them like they chew their pens!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great tools, awesome colors, August 3, 2000

By	Chris Williams (Scurry, TX USA) - See all my reviews

I didn't even have my Handspring Visor for a week before I lost my stylus. I didn't want to pay the shipping fee from Handspring's Website .... Then I found out that Amazon sold Handspring stuff. I would much rather pay the Amazon shipping fee ... than I would the Handspring fee.

I also like the colors. I was expecting to get a yellow stylus in the pack, but in the place of the yellow one, there was an orange one, which is great because my Visor is Orange!

Also, the reset button that unscrews from the tip and the mini philips screwdriver that unscrews from the top of the stylus are wonderful (no more hunting for a paper clip!).

I highly recommend this product if you need extra styli and are scared off by Handspring's high shipping cost.
