jeff, Fellowes makes them under the brandname of WriteRights. They're pricey at bestbuy and compusa, but you'll save more at Staples. RadioShack also makes generic-brand ones. I would assume that the iPaq ones would fit the Audiovox.
You can probably find better ones online.

and i've tried the toothpaste trick and it definitely did not work. tried whitening, tartar control, and regular. no dice. what does one do specifically? just put a little on a cloth and rub into the scratch? did i do something wrong?

back to uw:
i havent seen it on pda, so anything i say is prolly unjustified. uw was designed for a larger screen/mouse, and strafing was easy enough with that. a cursor would help, as that is what all the moving is focused on. obviously that isnt on the pocketpc so i can definitely see that it would be more difficult.

I just got a review copy today, and my first impressions are that it is an exact port, with the exception of the addition of the soft keyboard and hardware commands. The main problems are that the game was designed for a bigger screen so the 3D view is too small and there are no lefty controls, making it almost impossible for lefties to move while fighting (or doing anything else for that matter). But overall it's a great game, and quite possibly the best RPG currently available for Pocket PCs

The 3D view is the same RESOLUTION as the PC version, but I guess the difference between a 2" 320x240 and a 15" 320x240 is a lot :/

johannpublic, you're buffin the toothpaste in, right, in a circular motion and kind of firmly, just like you'd buff a car, right? I really doubt it will take care of bigger cracks in the screen, but it will definitely take out hair line scratches.
