BrightonNet iPhone/iPod Touch pen

I still don’t quite understand companies that try to make stylus for the iPhone. Apple’s handset is not designed to be used with a pen, but with fingers. How would you multi-touch on it? With two styluses? It’s ridiculous…

BrightonNet’s iPhone/iPod Touch PEN isn’t the first such a “device” we’ve seen (remember Pogo?). However, it is the fanciest, thanks to the soft tip attached to a flexible neck. Apparently, the mentioned “feature” should help you drag and swipe in a much easier manner. Yeah, sure… I’m not buying it. For one thing, I don’t wanna carry around a stylus if it’s not integrated in the device. It will get lost, you know it.

Anyway, we’ve no information where you can buy the iPhone/iPod Touch PEN nor how much it costs. To be fair, I’m not sure many of you care about it. Just for the record, the official product page is here, so if you wanna know more – you’ll know whom to contact. ;)

    I bought my iPodTouch for one big reason, the painting applications: Brushes and Colors!
    Painting with my finger, even if it is the pinky, is really hard and inaccurate, I’m looking for this stylus exactly. So it really is useful for me and this purpose.
