I had the same problem. The stylus broke where the plastic part is screwed into the metal tube. I can't understand why they are not built completely out of metal. But since 3 spare styluses cost about 15 Euro I get an idea why :eek:
I just made a new "plastic" part out of acacia wood, drilled a hole in it and joint it together by a pin that was glued into the he two parts.
This way it looks way better and won't break again. That's for sure. :D
By the way, I like touching wood better than plastic anyway.

I've also broken one stylus for no apparent reason, where the plastic meets metal. Very irritating. HTC must make a small fortune off the after-market for those things!

I thought they looked rather robust. I guess they don't last for as long as I thought.

same here. after about 2 months of usage i broke my first stylus 2 weeks ago.
I am looking for some alternative styluses.

BUT WHY THE HECK HAS THIS SOMETHING TO DO WITH WM6???

Had the same problem and bought a replacement pack of 10 from a shop online! Why this has anything to do with this forum is beyond me!

you can repar the two part (metalic and plastic) with iron thread that you have heated and planted into the two parts. You can put glue too
