Abstract
A writing implement (10) includes an integrally formed stylus tip (12) for inputting information into electronic devices. An ink cartridge style pen (10) with a push-button spring actuator (48) is modified to include an integrally formed stylus tip (12) molded into the writing end of the pen. When the ink cartridge (30) is retracted, the stylus tip (12) is available for use. However, when the ink cartridge (30) is extended, it extends beyond the stylus tip (12) for engagement with paper writing media. The pen (10) allows the operator to quickly and easily switch between writing with an ink tip cartridge (30) to input information with the stylus tip (12) without significant manipulation of the pen.
