I personally like the form factor of the 2x00 stylus and its fit in the
silo, but I don't like its weight. The original eMate stylus is nicer
but the form is slightly wrong for the silo. My current favorite is
the cheap Apple eMate replacement, modified with epoxy putty. I used
the putty (black) to shape the release end like the 2100 stylus and
used a bit more to smooth the plastic ribs for a nicer feel. I bought
a dozen on eBay for about $15 with shipping. Epoxy putty can be had at
many home centers but for black you will need to go to a picture frame
supplier or woodworker supply store.
