 Cannot find replacement pen for M275 Greetings! My employer gave me a brand new M275 to use at work. However, the pen has disappeared.. Gateway has no stock.. They referred me to Mundo who sells replacement parts for Gateway's that are discontinued. They have no stock. Can someone recommend a pen to use with this tablet.. After some searching it appears the Gateway digitizer won't accept third party solutions.. Is this correct? I would settle for a pen that doesn't fit in the silo. I just want a pen. Thanks! kregar      |

| Ouch. Looks like Gateway website says there is no ETA for the pen. You are correct that the wacom pens and palm stylus will not work with the M275. Hopefully someone here knows of another place. Did Gateway state they will be restocking ? I suggest that you call again.

| The M275 user guide page 176 says their it is a Wacom digitizer. http://support.gateway.com/s/Manuals/Mobile/8510817.pdf you should be able to use the Wacom replacement pens. WacomDirect: Department: 'Penabled Tablet PC Accessories & Replacement Parts' |

Good catch! The M275 was the last Gateway to use a Wacom digitizer.

| Re: Cannot find replacement pen for M275 This reply may no longer be of any use, but I have an m275 and my friend has some Toshiba and his pen works on my tablet. The eraser works as well! Don't know if thats any help though. You can also get styluses off ebay. |
