Someone posted over at Monster iPhone that if you repeatedly input the wrong things on the onscreen keyboard, you can use a stylus! Does the person even realize that the iPhone uses a capacitive-touch display which means it will only respond to electrical current from a person’s fingertips?
From Wikipedia
It has a higher clarity than Resistive technology, but it only responds to finger contact and will not work with a gloved hand or pen stylus unless the stylus is conductive and transmits the user’s capacitance.
Don’t go whipping out those PocketPC styli and use them on the iPhone people, might just end up scratching up the screen! You need something like the Pogo Stylus, or you can DIY something like the one on the video below. But on second thought… why bother? The iPhone was designed to be used with your bare hands.
Now, I’m not entirely sure whether the poster meant a specialized stylus for the Apple iPhone, but reading something like that on the internet is sure to spark up some curiosity.
