DR800 Compatible stylus?

CoolDragon · 06-23-2010, 12:36 AM

Anyone knows what stylus is compatible with the DR800's stylus, best if sold in local stores.

DR800 and all other iRex readers need a Wacom Penabled stylus.
Wacom had also made these for a few Tablet PC's (back in the days).

The stylus from the Onyx Boox and BeBook Neo are compatible/identical...

I'm not sure about the new Samsung E60, this one appears to use a digitizer similar to the ones from Wacom... but if they use a different frequency in the reflecting coil, it won't work.

My stylus for my Acer Tablet C110 works on my DR800 perfectly fine. Both the giant pen and the small one.

Wacom is sending me a quote for replacements styluses. I should have it in a few days , hopefully then I can get some in for folks who have lost theirs or just want to have a spare.

I believe the "Penabled" replacements pens on here are the correct ones:

The Penabled Tablet PC Slim Pen (SKU#MP200) on that page looks like the stylus that ships with the DR800SG, except that it has a switch. The stylus that arrived with my DR800SG has no switch (just a panel where one might be installed).

The stylus from my old, dead ThinkPad X41 works perfectly. It's a Wacom Penabled stylus.

I can now confirm that this particular item works just fine with the DR800SG. The other Penabled pens on that page should also work, as Shaggy said.

My parrot chewed up my original pen (I got it away from him before he totally destroyed it and still works, but not very well), so I ordered this

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ef=oss_product

since penabled pens are not being sold locally. It hasn't arrived yet, I will let you know if it works.
