iPhone Accessories – The Pogo iPhone Stylus

If you fancy using something other than your finger to control your iPhone then check out the Pogo iPhone Stylus.

In case you haven’t noticed the iPhone’s glassy touch sensitive screen is only sensitive to your stubby little fingers. This is because it uses a technology called capacitive touch which measures the flow of electrons through your skin. Problem is, last time we checked our fingers were pretty rounded and not too precise at picking out tiny URLs in Safari.

Luckily the geniuses behind the Pogo iPhone Stylus have magically solved this problem by making a stylus that somehow tricks the iPhone into thinking it’s really a finger. What’s more, the tip of the stylus is a soft felt like material that has the added benefit of keeping your screen clean while you tap away. How do they do it? Frankly we’re not sure, but hopefully it doesn’t involve grave-robbing.

Personally I think this defeats the purpose of the iPhone’s touchscreen interface, but if you really want to keep you iPhone screen free from smudge marks then the Pogo iPhone Stylus is available to buy online for $24.99 from ThinkGeek.
