My point exactly. So why did Dell include this a part of the stylus.

Ther is a chance you can scratch your stylus tip and that could scratch your screen.I use an icepick and a hammer myself.

There's a reset tool?

I find it pointless to flip pda around, unscrew press button, flip pda back around, and then rescrew. It adds 2 steps to the process.

I try to be very delicate so I restrict myself to a 3 pounder.

One of the Many things I love about this site is you learn something new ALL of the time! I had no idea the black part of the stylus came off to reveal a reset tool.

I also didn't notice the back could be unscrewed. I came from a Palm and there I had to screew otherwise I couldn't reset. I was surprised that when I wanted to reset my axim the first time. I couldn't get the back off so i tried the tip. Works flawless.
Just tried to get the back off. Heavy to get is los specially with slippery hands

Wow, I didn't even know it could be unscrewed! Well, the tip works just fine so why bother?
