I found an Ink Pen Stylus to be very handy (when I had an iPAQ), since I never seemed to have a pen with me, but I always had my PDA. I found a place that has these for the XDA I, and they said they're tooling one up for the XDA II. So the more folks that bug them about it the faster they may bring it to market.

Here's the link ... let them know if you want one too.

I also use the pen in my xda1 and would definitely want it for the I-mate I just ordered. How far off is the current pen from fitting into the xda-II? Is it too large around or too long? (can a somewhat handy person mangle/modify the current pen to fit in the xdaII :wink: )

I just sent them a note on http://www.pocketpctechs.com/contact.asp asking them when the ETA would be. I bet the XDA I would be close, but they said before they were tooling and XDA II up soon. So I would rather wait. We'll see what happens.

just for clarification... you said you had both the xdaI and xda II ?

Does your stylus from the xda I fit into the xda II slot? or is it too big in length or diameter? I sent a request to them as well since I love my littel stylus/pen/reset device.

Thanks,
Mike

I don't have my i-Mate XDA II yet, so I don't know if it will fit. Looking at the pictures, though, it doesn't appear it would work.

Also, I heard back from them and they said the following:

"Hi Tim,

I know it's in process, but asia is shut down for the next 10 days or so. I won't get an update until after their holiday.

Thanks,

leonard"

So it looks like we're close ... cool.

This is what I got back today

"Hi Mike,

"It is being designed now and should be released in the next few weeks.

"Thanks,

"Leonard

Fingers crossed

The XDA stylus is thicker and a bit shorter that the stylus for the XDA II. I seem to remember that it didn't fit.
