It's time to get rid of the toothpick. Some things I'd like:

- heavier weight
- good fit in the silo
- pen
- colored tip, particularly if it has a pen.
- reset pin

Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be anything that completely fits the bill....

Here is what I've found so far:

Innopocket's Metal 2 pack (http://www.innopocket.com/EShop/Main/product.php?ID=35&name=Sony)

Innopocket's 3 in 1 (http://www.innopocket.com/EShop/Main/product.php?ID=56&name=Sony)

E&B Cases' iPointPen-NX (http://www.ebcases.com/Detail.bok/d8c8e03cf3107a070ac?&category=Sony+Clie+PEG-SJ20%2FSJ30&start=1&total=10&no=198)

PDA Panache's Deluxe Stylus Upgrade (http://www.pdapanache.com/products.asp?PID=SSJ)

Appreciate any comments from SJ/SL users, especially regarding fit. Thanks.

I bought a 3-pack of PDA Gear (made in Taiwan) styli on eBay for under $10. I was surprised by the quality. You won't get your choice of colors, but you DO get a ball point pen in each stylus!

The weight of the stylus is good - the ink refill adds a little to it. It has a brushed aluminum barrel, with white tips on either end. The top pulls off to expose the pen. The tip unscrews and has a reset pin on the other end of it. The stylus fits my SJ20 perfectly, and 'clicks' into place well. It doesn't fall out, and yet it is easy to remove. It looks very much like an original T series stylus.

I'm happy... You can't go wrong at 3/$10!

I have the pdapanache stylus. It's fairly nice. Heavier than the stock stylus, but not as heavy as I thought it would be/would have liked. It has a long, orange tip. I can't compare it to any other upgrades, though.
