iPhone Stylus Means Less Typing Mistakes

091708_tf_pogo.jpgThis post is not for the skinny-fingered. Do you have strong thick digits and a taste for Mac? Do your texts look like this?:

Then you've probably encountered a problem typing on your iPhone's tiny touch keyboard, making you the ideal consumer for The Pogo, a stylus designed exclusively for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

 
 

091708_tf_pogo_stys.jpgThe Pogo Stylus features a light aluminum body with a soft tip that glides easily over the touch screen, making it easy to type, draw and scroll. A sleek clip holds it in place next to your iPhone.

Eliminating fingers from the iPhone has the added bonus of keeping the screen free of fingerprints, smudges and grease. It also means you can delete that custom email signature warning people about your lack of texting prowess.

Is this something you need? Something you'd buy? Do you think the iPhone is easy enough on its own? Or do you shun the iPhone and touch-based keyboards entirely?

I am totally getting this one. No I'm not. What I want is for the keyboard to turn on its side like when I browse the i-net. Then the keyboard will spread out and become bigger, making this tangler unnecessary.

"The fingers you have used to dial are too fat. To obtain a special dialing wand, please mash the keypad with your palm now."

I think of The Simpsons every time I use an iPhone, the stylus hasn't helped anything. :P

Can AT make a stylus to prevent horrendous grammar mistakes, like FEWER typing mistakes?

That's "fewer" typing mistakes. You *are* writers, right?

I confess I thought "fewer," also, before I took in the actual content of the post.

I'm fine without the stylus (medium sized fingers, I guess).
