View Full Version : The Stylus/Cover Mismatch

I just wanted to point out that if you want to keep the stylus handy but not lose it by putting it down somewhere, if you slide up the cover, stick the stylus in the wrong way (turned 180 degrees), and slide the cover back down, the stylus will stay sticking out and the cover remains slightly open. I've seen the lack of stylus slot on the cover discussed as a design defect, but I've found the above system to be handy for keeping the 770 on with the stylus ready to be used.

I just push on the headphone/usb section of the unit while holding the cover and slide it up a 1/4 inch and pull the stylus out in one swift motion. Ionno why people were complaining so much :)

The perfect... stylistically (and emotionally!) coordinated item! ;-)

I have one of those... it feels a lot nicer than the nokia pen, but since its combined case/stand is three times heavier than my 770 it's impractical to bring with me.
