Leo Laporte thought this was crazy, shortly after recording Dr. Kiki's
science show.

He didn't have any sausage, so he brought out a cheese stick.

It worked perfectly on the iPhone.

  As soon as Apple sees how iPhone and iPad users want to use
something other than their fingers, they will come up with a stylus.
But, then again, maybe not, for God has spoken and the wedded masses
cheered as the device was smitten and cast asunder, banished forever
to the land of the silly unimaginative ones.

The iPhone/Touch/iPad are designed for fingers [or meat]. There are many 
reasons why I don't want to have an iPhone, but for people to insist 
that it needs to have a stylus are asking for them to change a 
successful design for an arbitrary reason.


Do you have a iPhone or Touch? If not, lack of a stylus isn't important. 
There are plenty of other smart devices that you can use with a stylus, 
just not an Apple device. Those who were frustrated that there's no Mac 
netbook have hacked netbooks that run OS X [Hackintosh]. Those who have 
Macs and need to run Windows have emulators for that.


This looks like an opportunity, not a defect. Search for iPhone stylus 
and you'll find dozens of choices, just not one from Apple. How do you 
do multitouch with a stylus?

Are not S Korean's adept with chop sticks? I suppose they just hold  
two frozen sausages in the approved manner.

You know, Bill Gates probably doesn't own any because they're most often 
leased.
