Stylus for Storm & Storing It With A Case

Okay, by now there must be enough users who don't have Lilliputian fingers who have found a good Stylus to use with the Storm, and a method for storing it while leaving the Storm in the stock Blackberry case. Talk to me, Goose! What works? Thanks.

I have not heard of one nor have I ever wished or wanted one for the Storm. I dont have gigantic fingers or anything - I would say normal sized and never have any issues typing on it.

Thanks Lou. I often find that my finger is a little too large to be able to highlight or pinpoint an exact location when working with text. There are a number or capacitive stylus options that I have read about (for example the Ten One TI-AF25-100), but nobody addresses the issue of where to store the stylus when carrying your Blackberry around in the case. Any other thoughts are appreciated.

that stylus looks pretty interesting - i just googled it. i wonder how it would work with the storm and the clicking action??? it looks like you could easily keep it in your pocket or something. i still carry a trusty old PhD Multi (pen/pencil/stylus in one) even though I dont need a stylus anymore! the funny thing is that I have never even thought of trying it on the Storm!
By the way, the 114 OS leaked late last night and it has the new cut/paste option which iPhone'rs would porobably drool over! Unfortunately, there are some funky bugs with it but people have worked around them already. May load it tonight...

Thanks for the heads-up on the O.S. I just took a 2-hour class on the Storm at my local Verizon store and learned lotsa good poop (highly recommended if you have a good rep / instructor, as we did). Sounds like one of the next releases (maybe the new OS) will allow us to view which applications are open ... nice! Getting back to the stylus discussion, the big thing I've gleaned from reading up on the subject is that it must be CAPACITIVE to work with the likes of Storm. (I've seen them on line anywhere from about $5 - 25). A regular old stylus like I used to have with Palm, Handspring, Samsung, etc. will not work. I must admit that the more I work with the Storm, the easier it gets to learn how to enter data. The Learning feature of the keyboard helps it anticipate what you will enter, plus you can add custom words / phrases to help it interpret your input. I am going to experiment with Font Size as well, and maybe I'll be able to bypass the stylus after all.
