“If you see a stylus, they blew it.” This famous quote belongs to none other but Steve Jobs who was adamantly opposed to styli on tablets…

Kinda cool but... I'd rather spend the few dallors and buy one.

I see nowhere in the original article that the scotchpad is required to be moist.. looks like it's conductive without moisture.
Definitely a fun little craft project.. I think I'll give this a try with my kids. Since they always want to borrow my phone for games, they will get a kick out of this, and it will help keep my screen more clean as well!! :)

Other point the news forgot:
"You need at least two things; a faucet or glass of water to do this stylus works."
But in case of emergency you can use your mouth to moist it !
heeee, heee ...

Nice solution in a pinch, but I'd put down money for a Sammy Note (phone or tablet) if I thought I might ever need a stylus. Hell, even if I didn't, I'd still get one :)
