Saw this little beauty in a local auto parts store (!), right next to iPhone skins and car chargers.
I like how it says “makes it EASY to use your iPhone.” Like using a finger is hard? Maybe if you have big fingers.
The most useful part of the package might be the included gel skin, but I can’t say that in all fairness. I haven’t tried an iPhone stylus.
Shucks, I even press some of the Newton’s on-screen buttons with my finger, just to get things moving along quickly.

Macenstein does a great, in-depth review of two iPhone styluses after figuring that drawing with a finger is too hard to do.
One is the Pogo stylus, which we’ve covered here before. The other is a Japanese Touch Pen Stylus. Dr. Macenstein puts the two to the test by drawing – of all things – Sponge Bob Square Pants.
Check it out. In the meantime, any thoughts on an iPhone stylus? Does it ruin the whole thing, or is it a good way to get your modern-day Newton fix?
