Default [Q] Stylus for HD mini?
Hi,

When I recently made the switch from my Touch 3g to the HD mini I noticed there is no stylus anymore.
I know that the HD mini has a different kind of screen which won't react with anything but a finger, but is there something you can use as a stylus?
The small tip of a stylus makes text input easyer and faster for me the these huge fingers

Thnx

I belive that capacitive screen cant be used with stylus or pointy things
