Alternate case for the Neo1973, with a secure method for storing the stylus when not in use.

Contents

Design options

1. The stylus is pushed end-on into a round hole slightly larger than the stylus and retained by a spring-loaded clip at the end.
1a.A microswitch inside the stylus sleeve triggers power on/wake from hibernate when the stylus is removed (via an ACPI event, likely)
2. The stylus is stored by pushing laterally into a C-section clip.
3. The stylus is attached to the lanyard (while low cost/simple, the stylus is relatively delicate - this may not be suitable)
