Found N810 Styli
Has anyone found a source for a replacement stylus.
I only had the one in my box and lost it. I am a little bemused (IE Really $%^$ed off) by the fact that Nokia will not sell them separately. EDIT: Great news Gary has found a store in the US willing to provide the Styli in packs of 3. Quote:
Just to update everyone my styli arrived yesterday. 8 days from order. via Fed Ex. Pretty much exactly as i would expect. 6 styli in a single press seal plastic bag. Excessively well packed in a large box full of shredded news print. The invoice quoted at $5 per stylus plus 10 bucks shipping and tax. I am very happy. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
so you lost two of them? the extra in the box and the one inside the tablet?
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I never had the extra in the box.
The only indication that there should be one is a few post on here but defiantly only the one in my box. |

- perhaps other n810 owners can chime in whether or not two are included in the box? |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Two are included.. Or at least I got 2 in my box.
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
well, darn, that really stinks if ya dint get both of them. How long ago did you buy it? If it wasn't that long ago and you didn't register it, call and tell them there was only one in the box. I mean it's not impossible to imagine they missed a box.

Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Lets talk would require me to send the device back and get it swapped as they do not have spares around. Although they are happy to do that. I am going to have issues finding all the packaging etc now.

Re: Lost N810 Stylus
If anyone has any ideas on how to aquire a replacement stylas Id be greatful.
Currently I am using a multifuntion pen. but not having it clip into the device is annoying. If anyone has contacts in Nokia who can ship me a few spares for a price Id be more then happy to send them the price of a beer or two for there trouble. Hech if you live in GA ill buy you lunch. |

At least if you are living in Europe or another place to which the shipping is not too expensive this might be an option. e.g. Stylus: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...74&cp_dlt=5504 Kickstand: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...71&cp_dlt=5504 Case: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...64&cp_dlt=5504 LCD-Screen: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...53&cp_dlt=5504 Key-Pad: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...72&cp_dlt=5504 Battery Cover: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...56&cp_dlt=5504 Front Cover: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...69&cp_dlt=5504 Camera: http://www.yourhandy.de/query.php?cp...63&cp_dlt=5504 Edit: seems their webpage is also available in english language http://www.mobile-24.com |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
hes looking for one that is or works with n810.
i found this http://search.ebay.com/search/search...&fsop=1&fsoo=1 im not sure what the measurements are for the n810 stylus but some of them look simililar. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
They are definitely meant to have two in the packet, I've used three tablets (two N800s and an N810) and they all had two styluses in the package.
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
It would be great if there were some (possibly third-party) metal styluses for the ITs. The third-party solid metal stylus for my Tapwave Zodiac is a big improvement over the flimsy thing that came with it.
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Truly annoying, perhaps you could try calling the flagship stores in NYC or Chicago and seeing if someone in the brick and mortar could do you a favor.
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I was just going to suggest the same thing as mobiledivide, call the flagship stores if you live close to one of them or ask them to ship you one. Since Lets Talk is their official online seller, they should be willing to help you out. I know if I walked into their store and said I was missing something from the box, they'd just hand it to me...
If you still have the box, maybe you want to double-check on the missing stylus. When I opened my box, I couldn't find my extra stylus either and started getting annoyed. Then I noticed the little ditch above the spot where the tablet was sitting. It's where they pack the headphones, but since I wasn't using them, I didn't bother to take them out. Underneath the headphones was where my extra stylus was sitting, so I'm assuming if you didn't check close enough it might be there. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Two came in my box - bought early Jan.
I would actually love a metal body version with plastic tip of course. It wouldn't be too hard to machine one out of stainless steel but low volume cost would be high. I like the feel of the Palm TX srylus. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I actually prefer the Avery Triple Click to any stylus around. I have RA which affects my hands, among other insignificant body parts, and the fat pen style implement is the perfect solution for me. They cost around $9-$10 at Longs Drug Store.
That said, often I don't have a pen within reach and the standard stylus saves the day. But I find I carry the pen around everywhere as it's a mechanical pencil, gel pen and a nice stylus. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
My N810 didn't come with the extra stylus too. I didn't lose the one I get yet, but I'm really concerned that it's not available separately. A substitute stylus that won't fit in the N810 slot is not an option, IMHO.
I'm wondering how could I make one myself... |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I'm in the same boat as others here. I lost my n810 stylus a week ago and haven't found any sort of replacement after searching Amazon, EBay, the Nokia n810 accessories page, etc.
Any ideas? If anyone wants to sell me their spare stylus, PM me. Otherwise I may have to buy a new n810, remove the spare stylus, and try to resell everything else on Ebay. Boo! Nokia should really get on the ball and offer replacement styli. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
hax, that seems like an AWFUL hassle for just a stylus. Surely, you can just use something else?
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I've been searching for hours and finally found 3-packs of n810 stylii for sale here for 10 Euros. Sadly, their web order form only offers shipping to Europe. But I called just now and the guy spoke English and said that he can probably ship to the US with a phone order, but I need to call back in an hour when his colleague Andreas is around. Wish me luck!
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Thanks hax thats great. I could not find anything when i searched and I am not allone from the looks of it. But if one place is selling it is anly a matter of time.
As for the guy who commented on the stanless steel stylus. I had a TX as well and got the steel stylas with a built in pen. Id be happy to pay a premiunm if someone machined a few hundred and sold them here. Quote:

Re: Lost N810 Stylus

Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Nokia has managed to do a lot of things, but in more than a year they haven't been able to meet the challenge of replacing customer styluses. Hey, Mac fans! When you need one can you buy a stylus from Apple? Hey Microsoft! Got styluses for your customers?
Nokia is a unique company. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I am happy to report that I just received a new replacement stylus for my n810, but it was more of a pain (and more expensive) than I would have liked. Here are the details:
So while things weren't perfect, I'm at least happy to have a working stylus now. And I'm going to be very careful not to lose this one! I contacted many US stylus retailers asking them to stock N810 stylii, but none agreed to do so. A couple mentioned that dealing with Nokia is a pain, especially if you are not a phone retailer. I do love the n810, so I hope the stylus availability picture improves. Nokia needs to make these more available in the US, and they should try to at least standardize on one stylus form factor for their future internet tablets. I wish they would use the same form factor as the Palm Pilot, as I can pick those up cheaply at numerous stores in my area. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I lost mine as well =( I wish there was a place in the US that sold them.
|
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Anyone want to sell one of theirs?

Apparently Boxwave offers different versions of a ballpoint-pen-or-stylus called the Styra, which is engineered to replace the stylus of specific devices. If you follow a different navigation tree at the site, you'll see that you can pick a Styra that fits your device. Except that there doesn't seem to be one for either the N810 or the N800. Boxwave also seems to offer plain old replacement styluses, but again, not for the N810 or N800. The specificity of the ad copy that says it is "precision designed to the exact measurements of the original stylus" must be boilerplate used for all their styluses. Maybe that's why you can't add the Styra or replacement styluse to your shopping cart from the N810 accessories page. |
Re: Lost N810 Stylus
Perhaps availability of replacement styluses should be added as one of the requested features of the N900.

Re: Lost N810 Stylus
I've been looking for a replacement stylus for awhile....just found this ebay auction. I purchased it but have not received it yet. Leather case + stylus for $20 including shipping. If it is junk or I don't receive it, I'll repost.
ebay item: 270236240772 Seller: ishop-express I'm not affiliated in anyway... |
