I would gather that you could use anything that is a stylus type device.
The Nintendo DS uses a fairly simple type of touch screen: a transparent layer over top of the screen that can sense any object touching it. I've controlled my DS with a finger nail and the back end of a pen, for example. I believe that the Entourage Edge uses Wacom's stylus technology where the sensor lies under the screen and can only sense special styli. I have a Wacom drawing table and it won't even detect really old Wacom brand styli. Based on this I think you will need an Entourage brand or very similar Wacom technology stylus. My second wave shipment Edge hasn't arrived so I can't test for sure yet.
