I originally purchased the $80 pen from best buy. After finding out that $80 only gets you 4 apps that this is useful with I returned it and got my money back.
I Then went to the Fujitsu website and purchased this Pen for $25 +tax and shipping $32 total
Got it today from fedex. It is almost identical to the HTC PEN except it has 1 button (highlight) and a lanyard. Also comes with an additional tip. It works perfectly with the Flyer. For erasing, I just click the Pen button on the tab and use the eraser there instead of on the pen its self. So You are paying an Extra $48 + Tax for an erase button on the pen. NO Thank you.
Return those Overpriced Pens to Best Buy, Let HTC Know what you think of that waste of money with your Wallets. Buy the Fujitsu pen and don't look back till HTC comes to their Senses and lowers the price.
Oh, you can also attach the lanyard to your case so your pen can't run away if you are inclined. I've got mine on my TPU case at the power hole.
An extra pen would make a perfect Father's Day gift.
Thank you for the info.
It looks like the Fujitsu part number is FPCPN36AP.
I also found it on Amazon (USA) for $33.99 and PC Connection for $23.43 (both plus shipping)
Thanks for the info yo. I was just looking for an alternative pen yesterday and seen this one but didn't know if it worked. Thanks for the confirmation

Nice find, good price
Thanks for the find ordered !
I picked up a few of the Fujitsu stylus pens as backup. The lanyard attachment is nice but "other end" doesn't work very well as a capacitive stylus.
I was under the impression it was Best Buy's decision not to bundle the pen... Hence their logo on the flyer box. Complain to Best Buy...

Never used back of pen as stylus, couldn't stand the metal on tablet issue.
Best Buy, HTC, Don't matter, if the pen were bundled the flyer would be $579. Don't buy the pen for $80, the erase button and metal stylus isn't worth it over the Fujitsu for the price difference. Make HTC/Best Buy Lower the price on the pen with you wallet.

I agree. Gouging the consumer for the one distinctive feature of this tablet sucks. The lower price will come in time. Personally if it weren't for the pen integration, I wouldn't have purchased the Flyer. It was never an option for me to not buy the magic pen.
Having the Fujitsu n-trig option is great backup for me.
BTW - clarification of who's gouging the consumer does matter for press and company profiles. I have to handed it to someone, they understood that price was key to make this device more attractive to first-gen tablet consumers. And that the pen was a "Power-user" premium.
I received the Fujitsu pen today. It is the same exact size as the HTC pen and it works fine on the flyer. And it comes with an extra tip.
Woohoo

Does the fujitsu pen also have the same pressure sensitivity as the htc flyer pen or any pressure sensitivity at all?
Yes it is pressure sensitive. It may be a little better with gauging pressure than the HTC pen...
Great find, I've ordered one myself.
Awesome find but just to also let you know I grabbed the HTC pen from eBay brand new for 30 dollars even shipping was free, was a little skeptical but hey figured I would try. It came in and it is the HTC official pen packaging and all. Just figured i would share.

got one from this seller. no retail packaging but the scribe looks new with no scratches.
I only ask because this scribe is black, and most I've seen that are OEM were definitley silver.
I'm just a bit concerned that this guy might be selling counterfit ones.

The black one is meant to be an accessory for the View. They're the same though, I have both... I also have a UK 3G Flyer that came with the silver Scribe
Allright great! Thanks a lot. I might buy this. It's in my price range. Any problems with using it thus far?
FYI, Best Buy just drop the price on the pen for the flyer, it's now $39.99.

I am not sure, however, after exploring the tablet software a little bit there is an awesome desktop dock application that shows the weather, the htc clock, and facebook updates. So I take it we will see a home dock in the near feature. I wish a car dock would come out, but because of its size and legality of videos playing while driving, we probably won't see one of those.
The only two accessories that I know of are:
HTC Scribe Pen - $80
Anti-Glare Screen Protector @ AT&T - $20
- Dan
Actually, if you go to Amazon and search for HTC Puccini, a tpc case also shows up. No case, though....soon, I hope!

For anyone looking for decent case that fits the HTC Jetstream until cases that are made for this product reach the market. I have been using a Targus (Truss Leather Case / Stand) Model Number THZ07002US from Best Buy.
It’s a case that was made to fit an Acer ICONIA TAB A500 10.1 pad. It works as a cover and a stand that has three viewing angles in stand mode. It also has a slot for the styles pen but it’s a little bulky, doesn’t fit as tightly as I would like and it covers the back camera. All that said you can easily reach the on off switch, head phone jack, volume controls and even plug the unit in without taking the pad out of the case.
I still want to buy a case made for my unit that lets me use the back camera and that fits a little better but until they become available I needed some thing to protect my new overpriced but amazing Jetstream.
Looks like PDAir will be making some and rooCASE will have some nice ones ready October 19 on Amazon...they look nice.

is the scribe pen still coming free with the device if its bought in store? thanks
Yes, until October 15...
Pen Issues
I bought the unit in person last week, just before closing on my way home from work. The ATT store did not include the pen with my purchase and I forgot to ask for it. I went back in the am to get it and boy did it get interesting.
They started out with the story that the Pen only was included if you bought the data plan on a 2 year commitment?
I said really? Show me where it says that? I have seen the pen offered in EVERY AD as free with purchase for a limited time.
We went round and round and the finally relented but what a PIA....
ATT is truly clueless when it comes to it's own products, promotions etc.
Love the Jetstream, dont love the hoops you have to jump through.
How about NO ONE knowing when the LTE network is turning on?
Why am I paying for a data plan for something that is not ever available yet and has no timeline?
I passed on the data.
Have unlimited wifi tether on my rooted inspire so that's my dataplan.
Yeah I didnt think they were all coming with pens, hope mine has one with it ><
Didn't have that issue. I am WiFi only and they asked to register me and I said I didn't really need to because I was using it only on WiFi networks. Got the pen nonetheless.
I think you are supposed to have a data plan, but the advertising was hazy....and the ATT rep said without me asking that I got the pen. I really think it depends on the person.
ATT doesn't have good reception in my neck of the woods, so Sprint is my provider. like you, Tracy, I just tether.

Case/cover for Jetstream
Picked this case up on Amazon last week.
http://www.amazon.com/HTC-PUCCINI-S...H4TA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1316444249&sr=8-3
For 9.99 was not expecting much....Case is great....Soft and flexibile. Covers the back and all the corners and makes holding easy.
I recommend highly.
Tracy
Has anybody heard about a folio case that allows it to stand up, much like the Xoom case? It's really the only thing I find the device is missing.
Melkco says they are working on one. So does PDAir. RooCASE will have one ready mid-October....you can see the rooCASE on Amazon. PDAir on their own website, and I conducted Melkco on my own....
Looks like we will have to be patient. The gel case on Amazon works well for the time being....

Found this case on the HTC website. It is the official case. I assume it looks just lile the Flyer case..

Due to being in a rush, i got this case for $70 at WalMart
www.kensington.com/kensington/us/us/p/1615/K39336US/keyfolio™-bluetooth®-keyboard-case.aspx
Had to make some mods such as cutting a big hole for the camera and cutting some of the elastic for clear the volume and power buttons. Also cut some of the front 'frame' so the screen is fully visable.
IMPORTANT: Just be aware the two/three small holes on the top of the Jetstream are light sesons for the flash/camera, so the hole you cut for the camera must be big enough allow light access to those small holes. The BT keyboard works great with it too.
did u get the case?

I saw that yesterday. It also comes in pink but I would prefer a case that has a place for the scribe pen....:-\
I stopped at a Best Buy to grab a Scribe Pen before the holiday rush and found out that the price went back up to $79.99 (previously on sale for $39.99) On the website it shows out of stock and at the increased price as well. I talked with the rep that worked at the Best Buy Mobile store and he said they might decrease the price next weekend for Black Friday.
I tried ordering one from Amazon in bulk packaging (there were only 2 left when I ordered) but now it's showing out of stock. Hopefully I got it in time.
Anyone know where to find a good deal on a Scribe Stylus in case if my order was too late?
There is a seller on Ebay that sell OEM HTC stylus for $29.95.

Yeah I checked out eBay and saw that one. It's definitely an option. I had a $5 credit for Amazon and should be getting a $10 credit for Best Buy soon so I was looking to get the Scribe from them. I just want to make sure I'm not getting a cheap knock off that doesn't work properly.

I purchased the black OEM one from eBay, and it works just fine. Both of the buttons work and frankly I think the black looks better.
That being said, I have never used the silver one. Another thing to note is that the one from eBay doesn't come with a battery. I'm not sure if the BB one does, but I had to go to Radioshack (my BB didn't carry the batteries) and it cost me about 8 dollars for a pack of two.
Ugh, I can't find my stylus. Going crazy looking for it, but I think I'm going to have to buy another one soon. Thanks for the tips on where to possible find cheaper ones.
Noticed that the price was back up when I stopped by Best Buy last night to pick up some Bluetooth headphones. I was going to pick up a stylus also, but decided against it at that price.
Are they nuts at Best Buy (for raising the price just before Black Friday), or could it be a pre-cursor to discounts on the Flyer price which they want to recoup through accessories (whici is SOP for Best Buy - they will try to saddle you with a "high quality HDMI" cable for your new TV for $59-99 when you can get the same quality from a $10 Amazon cable)? Here's hoping for a few more Flyers in the $200 range!!!!!
So very hard to find these buggers in Canada
I'm in the market for a car mount for my evo, just wondering if there's any mounts available that will hold it with a case on?

second this, as long as its not a bulky otterbox. TPU silicone and hard cases should work fine. They also supply little pieces of foam so if your phone is at an angle, you can straighten it out. You'll see what i mean if you get one.
cheers
For a cheaper dock the quality is surprisingly good, got mine with the media link back when they had the 2 for 20% off, all in all only paid about a hundred bucks, dock was practically free lol

Amazon has a good one called iOttie
http://www.amazon.com/iOttie-Windshield-INCREDIBLE-BlackBerry-Revolution/dp/B00687N0GK
holds any phone, so it came in handy for me. also they have excellent customer support. mine broke when my daughter knocked it off the counter with my phone in it and they sent me a replacement for free
I think the one that Sprint sells is the closest you'll get to OEM from HTC. Unfortunately, I've ONLY been able to find it in stores and on Sprint's website. Finding it on any other website or eBay is pretty much impossible to find a better price. I like keeping everything OEM, so I'll probably get it when I'm really going to need it.
the one sold by sprint is made from a company called ibolt. They make a generic car dock for the oneX that fits the LTE and the oneX.
http://www.amazon.com/iBolt-Vehicle...?ie=UTF8&qid=1347487055&sr=8-3&keywords=ibolt
that is the one that i'm using right now. works great and its the same price at sprint. i just bought it off of amazon because i had a $50 Amazon gift card so i basically got it for free.

This ARkon mount its the note, it'll fit the Evo with a Ballistic case:
http://www.arkon.com/slimgrip/slimgrip-dashboard-mount-sm578.html
They have window suction and other ones of you don't want the dash version. Best of all, they're mostly under $20.
I ordered an iBolt from Amazon and you can (optional) use it with or without case. All you have to do is remove a piece of plastic from the mount and it fits with case. Its a very sturdy and flexible mount and I recommended it. I think I paid around $25-30. There are cheaper ones out there but you get what you paid for...

I took a trip to the local Sprint store this morning and picked up their car dock and I must say, Im damn impressed at the quality! kind of whack that it doesnt include a charge cable but it is a nice piece for sure. I hightly recommend it :good:
I just got the iBolt version from thecellguru.com & love it so far. $27 after shipping (no tax for those in states that care). Cheapest I was able to find anywhere online (even eBay). They only have it under the OneX compatibility section (probably because that's what it says on the box), but I can attest that it works fine with the EvoLTE. Oh, and no I do not work for them...just dropping a tip to save everyone some $ on a decent accessory.

Sent from my LTEVO
I've been looking at the ibolt. Has anyone used it with an otterbox commuter case? The reviews and description say it can be used with a case, but otterbox has a flap covering the usb port so I don't know how it would work.
I wish they would make one like I had for the og evo. With the cone shaped base and the thin chrome post with ball on each end, and thin minimal plastic clip holding the phone. All so neat and trim. I hate the big boat shape tray on the sprint/ibolt one, especially since my phone has no case, that boat shape is way bigger than the phone and looks ugly. Also the big fat hold-down clip on the top. Ugh.. it all blocks so much more window view than necessary. And of course the blue charging light, yet another unnecessary light on my dash at night.
But it holds the phone securely, charges, and provides a good landscape gps and media player.
I'll have to dig up a pic of my old og evo setup to show what I mean. I think the dock was actually for the hero but it worked on the og evo with a tiny hack just trimming away a small bit of plastic. Looked a hundred times better than the sprint/ibolt. This was definitely one downgrade from upgrading from og evo to evo lte.

Oh yeah plus you could turn it portrait or landscape any time and it looked good both ways.

I been trying to decide on a case to get for my phone, i also herd there are issues with some cases with AT&T LTE? These cases are One X.. which is the same size as one x+? I herd the international ones are smaller ?

I would like to have a case that protects my phone but also does not make it any more larger than it already is, i had the commuter otterbox on my last phone and it was bulky but my phone was atrix 4g so it was just the right size, the htc one x+ is big in my hands by itself. I do drop and ding my phone a bunch while i work or do outdoor activities, but not too extreme.

I had an online chat with a Seidio rep about the One X+ and the Surface case - they told me that neither the AT&T/LTE case or the International case will work. I am skeptical of that claim, so I am ordering one of each (w/o kickstand) to see which works better. I should have them next Tuesday.
Edit: Returned my phone today (last day of my 14 day return window) due to the bluetooth issue, so I will still have the cases on Tuesday, but won't be able to test them. If anyone is in the PDX area and wants to try (or buy?) them, let me know, otherwise they will be going back. FYI, the International version of the Seidio Surface case with holster in red or blue is less than $11 at Amazon, $50 at Seidio and $25+ for the AT&T version at Amazon, so very good deals.
im rocking this case, good luck breaking your phone in this case one piece design and its a sexy looking case, fitment is 100% perfect on att one x plus i paid $18 on amazon normally $35 at At&t
I got the case mate barely there. It looks amazing!
Just ordered a casemate, for now. Let me know if anyone has any of the other cases i mentioned, i am still curious.
I have the otterbox and find its not as bulky as some other cases and it provides really good protection as well.
