Hello everyone

Something is wrong with my stylus (Iliad 2nd Ed.)
Last time I used the reader, like 2 months ago, it was working perfectly.
Yesterday I used it again. First, I had to charged the battery, so I thought the problem was because of being discharged.
But now it is totally charged and it has the same behavior.

It only writes when it is in an angle of 30 degrees or less. As you can imagine, it is impossible to write this way.
If it is in 80 or 70 degrees (a comfortable position for the hand) it doesn't write.

It seems like if the (white) tip has lost the "connectivity", and only works the higher portion of the tip, the nearest part to the grey body of the pen. I am just guessing, so that's why it only works when putting it almost parallel to the screen.

Is there any way to solve this, like a "tip replacement"?
Any experience about this problem?

Thank you.
