Please can someone help a newbie by recommending a good place to get a Stlyus Pen for a V2 TomTom One?
Ideally I'd like one that you can use to reset the device as well.
Hopefully without paying a fortune! |

use your finger which is free...a paper clip can be used for the reset ... _________________ *************************** |

Thanks for the tip but fingers leave marks & I don't usually have a paper clip on me! |

I always use the "rubber" end of a pencil.
Re the paperclip....keep one in the car! |

ianb11 - GO OUT AND GET THEM BOTH - I have both in the van (I'd be happy to sell you a complete set for a fiver plus a fiver postage) :D
Just about anything, including a stylus, will leave a mark on the screen. I'll also happily sell you a yellow duster for a fiver plus a fiver postage. :D _________________ Dennis

I always have a Bic pen in the car. The end of the cap makes a perfect stylus

I use a plastic golf tee it does both very well and I haven't got any marks on my screen.
You can buy a pack of 20 assorted colours so one might even match the colour of your car I think they were about a quid. you might even be tempted to take up golf.

Graham. |

Well I'm not sure what else you could do with a pack of 20 golf tees.
At least not in polite company.
It would take years to wear one out on your TT.

I use an old bic propelling pencil. I am not on about the reuseable ones, but the use once throw aways that usually come in a pack of five. Not bad as a stylus!
You will still have to find your own paper clip though |
