Summary: Great Replacement Sylus for M5xx Series
Review: I kept track of the original stylus for my M500 so long that no one in the local stores stocked them, so I tried Amazon, which offers the usual overwhelming number of choices. The Belkin Product is essentially an exact replacement except the shaft is black instead of brushed metal. The fit is very good; it doesn't slip out on its own, and doesn't fight back when you need to remove it. There is a slight protrusion above the surface of the M500 when the stylus is fully inserted, but since the top of the stylus is nicely rounded it has a natural appearance. If you prefer the weight and feel of a metal stylus, like the original, this is the next best thing. Also, you now get 4 instead of 3 styli.

Summary: Not the best choice for m500 series
Review: When the original stylus that came with my Palm m515 started to slip out of its storage slot, I decided I needed a replacement. I ordered several different brands to find the stylus that suited me best. Of the four different m500 series replacement styli that I tried, I was least satisfied the Belkin brand. The stylus has a good weight, similar to the original. But the main problem with this stylus is in its size. The small plastic bumps on the end that allow the stylus to snap into place in the storage slot are too large. It feels as if you have to force it into place, so much so that I was actually worried it would cause damage. The stylus is also a bit too long, so that when you do get it into the storage slot, it sticks up farther than it should. Overall, I would not recommend this product for use with the Palm m500 series handhelds.
