What's the strangest thing you've used as a stylus?

[nbkzxl8]

What's the strangest thing you've ever used as a stylus on with your pda? I'm notorius for losing them, and will grab whatever is handy when I do. I've used toothpicks, pens, my dogs toenail, whatever. The weirdest thing I ever used, was a toothbrush. It didn't work well, but my NX70V has never had tooth decay.:D

The butt end of my fork as I was eating lunch and reading articles online.

The antenna on my mobile phone; Tounge depresser; toothbrush.

A LEGO wrench, a pen top MY pinky (can't graffiti with it tho)

[yorrick]

My nose - no accuracy given that I've got such a flat nose! :) :)
A friend _almost_ used a (used) chopstick to tap on the screen. I almost used my chopstick to impale him...

[Trp]

Mostly i use the side of my index finger (and can graffiti pretty well) and the remote controll is a stylus (well, what eles would that little lump at the end be?) apart from that i'v used my headphone plug, a telephone cable, and a chess piece. :) (Thank God i have a screen protector)

The eraser of a lead pecil works great.

makes me wonder why the stylus doesn't have a

rubber tip that can roll, kind of like a ball point pen

It will definately eliminate scratches

I frequently use a fingernail . . .

ewww..I don't want to know what you were doing! JK

I use the feminine clie strap when I just need to click stuff.

When I am listening to mp3's on it, I use the tip of the music player remote that came with the clie. (Isn't that why that tip is there??)

[Inginious]

I sometimes use the Remote that came with the Clie, After all, thats why it has that type of end.

[ShellyBelly]

Never thought about using the remote tip:)

I've used my nails (very often), the corner of a credit card, the tip of the "arm" on my glasses, and a memory stick (corner).

[nbkzxl8]

I never thought to use the end of the remote either. I'll have to try that. Now where did I put that remote...

[hansschmucker]

The Zipper of my jacket! It has no sharp edges and I left my stylus at home. Worked great for me =)

[freecia]

zip tie, back of a Cross Morph pen (this is before they were tipped in plastic for intentional use as a stylus. don't use the metal one. It looks smooth but still scratches) Folded up paper. The plastic ring beneath the cap of a water bottle squished a bit.
I bet everyone has had someone almost write on theirs with a pen.

[(oyo)]

I've used an empty roller pen, car key, very softly (used vieture keyboard), and finger nail.

[Jypsy]

Heyas all, I recently purchased a clie NX70V (upgrading from my handspring Visor lol) and so far, my index finger, a paintbrush handle, the butt of a steak knife, and in one case a Key have found their way to my touchscreen....
Just also wanted to say hi to all the other NX owners out there, and that i really like these forums so far.

[nike33]

Those pre-formed tooth floss thinggies. One end is the a minature bow with floss and the other end is a plastic toothpick.

NO, NO, a new one, not a used one!

Yuck, otherwise thoose NASTY STREAKS all over the poor Clie's screen!

[Token User]

Edge tip of the aluminium bottle opener I keep on my keyring.
Rounded end of paperclip.
Papermate medium point with cap ON.

[markgm]

Fingernail clippers, phone antenna, pen, credit card, basically anything I can find...I hate the small size and feel of the included stylus. My screen is still scratch free too!

[xlr8]

Edge of my thumb-nail for tapping, various ends of pens (and yes, the nib on the remote IS a stylus tip, a large one none-the-less)

[reactor18]

Hmmmmm, a crochet hook, chicorita and... a hard shell taco. The last was in a moment of desperation!

YEAH!!!!!!! :p The 100th POST!!!!!!!!!

I am more interested in some of the strange things that others have used their stylus for?

[nbkzxl8]

To scratch my ears... (what, like you haven't??)

[Investa]

I once used the screwdriver inside of my visors stylus to take apart a Vaio laptop and swap out the harddrive (remove the keyboard for access). This was done at 30K feet. I received some very strange looks from my row mates. This, of course was done pre 9/11. If you were to take apart a laptop now, they would think you must be carrying a b*mb inside of it.
