Keeping your Palm Pilot and Nintendo DS like new!

no
that is an awful idea!!
it will leave fibers on the screen and ruin it
after using a q-tip like substance to clean my handheld fibers from it actually started to collect UNDER THE SCREEN
(this was previous to you posting)

Good idea.....but its kinda weird using a Q-tip for a stylus.I can't imagine petting my Nintendogs with a Q-tip...

It works great for Nintendogs! (IMO) :)

I think it works better because you're not petting your Nintendog with a plastic stick. :)

Actually, I've been using a QTip to use on the DS since my last post and I've had no problems with it ruining the screen. (And I feel better having the kids use it it too)

I only use the QTip a couple of times (sessions) before the fibers unravel, then I either use the QTip one last time ;) and toss, or just toss. The plastic handled ones seems to work better than the cardboard ones. I also regularly clean the DS screen.

The QTip is just an alternative to using the DS Stylus (so it won't scratch the screen, and picks up any stray dust/oil from fingers, etc.) I have found this tip works really well with my kids.

I REALLY don't want my DS ruined

I've tried this and it seems to work really well. Thanks for sharing the tip.

... also... I can't see how the qtip fibers can get under the screen anyway ?????
