THE STYLUS
Like the left button on a desktop computer mouse, the stylus is a tool that
lets you select items and enter data. Like the right button, the stylus lets
you perform shortcuts like cutting and pasting. Instructions for these tasks
are listed in the chart below.
The stylus is stored in an open slot at the top of the device. A hole in the
end allows you to attach a lanyard.
