Just a patent to be shelved away. Apple will not have a 'stylus' for their products.

I have seen, AND USED, other devices that use a stylus. After a while the screen is all scratched up and looks terrible. Although this is an optical stylus many users, if any buys one, while actually touch their screen with it and in a matter of time will have ruined their iDevice.

lol

? Sure you weren't using a KNIFE? lol..Generally i don't want to use a stylus but there are cases where they are very handy.. ie. drawing apps

It's for drawing, engineering, photoshop, CG animation, some games. Great!

Guy

Fukkkkk this, I'm going to shove this stylus in Tim cooks ass.

Ryan

i agree, its hard to be precise when drawing with your finger......but a stylus is just another thing to lose, and I'm guessing that the stylus wont be cheap. So be prepared to pay through the nose for another apple product.

Huan'z

Stylus? Seriously. No thanks!

matt
