> Broken pen stuck is stuck in my p900
Bookmark topic
The thingy in the top of the pen has come loose and the rest is still stuck in my p900. Do anyone have a trick/idea that can help me get it out?

You could always try shaking it out of your P900; if that fails then you probably have to get creative. When the top is detached from the stylus there is a small hollow space revealed, you could try to use a paperclip to pull the body of the stylus from the silo. This is probably a lot trickier than it sounds though; even though there is a small hollow space it is doubtful whether it would be enough to make using a paperclip easy, you will need to try and press the paperclip against the side of the hollow space in the stylus and attempt to pull it out that way.
A rather more risky option would be to use superglue, a small amount (very small) applied to the end of a paperclip (they are useful) and then carefully inserted into the small hollow space in the stylus, and allowed to dry for a few minutes, might be enough to pull the stylus from the silo. This course of action might produce some scarring on your phone and/or stylus if the superglue spills or proves difficult to remove (which it almost certainly will).

I don't think tweezers would be much use in the confined space of the silo.

If you have another stylus, unscrew the nib. The nib can then be screwed into the end of the stylus which is stuck in your phone and you should then be able to pull it out.

If he does that he won't get a chance to carry out my long and convoluted methods!

Wouldnt the little lip on the top end of the stylus prevent the tip from being able to turn when inserted into the silo ?
Like scotty said, try a tiny bit of super glue, or, try stuffing some blue-tack down the silo so it sticks to the stylus, and pull it out.

Well i was counting on the degree of confusion caused when the stylus is pulled from the phone and the user is perplexed as to which side is which. By the way, i just scraped all the paint off my stulus with a knife and the damn thing is aluminium! Its all pretty and silver now! Seriously, it looks way better than bengalboys!

Etab yes it would. Thats why i said use the nib, as there is nothing to stop this rotating in the silo.

I had thought of Blu-Tac, but I imagined that it might end up creating a bigger problem, in that it might get stuck in the silo, thus making it more difficult to remove the stylus. It would also be rather tricky to get any remnants of the Blu-Tac out, if it became lodged in the silo.
