I am looking for a stylus headset for the Padfone 2. Can I use the one from the Padfone? And where can I buy it? It seems to be sold out in all shops...
It seems to be sold at very few stores in a few countries, and it was only included with the Padfone in Taiwan... I would try looking for it at your local stores...

Try HM5000 from Samsung .Cool nice bluetooth . Gmarket selling for $70/- YOu can get from Aliexpress for only $20/-
I myself got one from Aliexpress .
Dam, i was hoping it was a hybrid with stylus pen also. Too bad it's so freaking expensive. But i really like a stylus pen and at the same time you need something to answer the calls. Bah, i might just buy one anyway. :/
In case, Samsung is release the MH5100, which is the stylus/headset combo. Not sure when and how much it will be. However, seeing Samsung's pricing, I believe it might be on par in terms of pricing with the Asus one.
I dug far and wide through Google and it looks like the Samsung S Pen depends on custom code in the applications to be able to use it, which means there'll be no chance of us using it on the PadFone2.
Does anyone here have a friend with a Galaxy Note or Galaxy Note 2, from whom they can borrow the stylus for a few seconds to see if it'll work just as a regular stylus on the PadFone2's touch screen?
The only alternative I've managed to find to Asus's genuine bluetooth stylus is this cheap Chinese one, but it doesn't look very promising (you have to remove the tip to use the capacitive stylus, and it doesn't look like it can be used without a headset).
There's also this one which can be used with or without headset, but it looks like it's only a resistive-screen stylus, which makes it useless for us - and of course is much thicker and clumsier than the elegant Asus product.
The bluetooth stylus would have to be one of the coolest ways of answering your 'phone, but I wonder how many people seeing you talking into your pen in public will think you're crazy?
I also wonder how many police could be fooled if you use it while driving? "Oh no, officer, I was just scratching my head with my pen."
Edit: Just found that cheap Chinese stylus on another web site with much better pictures, and it turns out it actually can be used without a headset. It still looks ugly compared to the Asus one though.
