Reviews: Styli

Tornado

First Impressions -
   This stylus was really packaged tight.  There was an outer box, then a metallic case, and then the stylus in a little felt sleeve.  Though it is a lot, it really looks like a cool stylus.  It comes in multiple colors and has a nice outward design.  It also is one of those "try and figure out how to get the pen out" kind of pens.  Once you figure it out, it is really neat.

Pointing and writing -
    I carry this pen with me now almost all the time.  It is a great pen and a great stylus.  It's weight is well proportioned to make it not to heavy or dense.  It is also small, so it can fit in my pocket.  I really like the stylus tip.  It works very well on my PDA and even better on a PDA with a screen protector.   The neon color tip also is great so you know if you have out the stylus or the pen, because there is no markings on the pen to know which would be out based on how you turn the end.

Overall Worth -
    If you want to take my overall recommendation for the best stylus, this would be it.  I don't know how you could get much better.  It writes incredibly well, and my PDA actually recognizes my handwriting better now.  The pen isn't heavy and is nice a compact.  Stylus Central will also engrave up to four letters on this stylus, so you will never lose it.
Pros:
Good Size
Good Weight
Pen too
Writes Well
Cons:
-None-

Update (July 2002) - 
    This was my favorite pen for quite some time.  I really liked the size of it and feel and usually kept it in my car for when I needed to take notes there.  Sadly I have lost this stylus.  If I didn't have so many other various styli, I would probably buy another one of this.  Well worth the cost, good construction, never had a problem with it.
