Thanks you two for your advice. I would just like to make something a little more clear though. I lost my original stylus about 1 1/2 days ago, and the reader side was not responding correctly before then either. I swear if my fat butted cat stepped on this screen when I wasn't looking again and broke this too...well hmmm I guess I'm SOL. (My daughters would disown me if I actually did anything to him

)
