Abstract
A low profile eject stylus (104) has an outer shell (402) and outer shell (404). The main shell is smaller than the outer shell whereby the main shell can slide within the outer shell. The outer shell has a cross sectional configuration such that it is larger in one direction (A) than it is in another direction (B) orthogonal to the one direction, such that the eject stylus has a low profile. A tip (406) fits within the main shell at an end opposite to the outer shell. The outer shell as assembled over at least a portion of a plunger (408). A spring (412) is coupled to the plunger to bias the stylus into a fully extended position. The stylus can be advantageously employed in a portable device (100) having a housing section (102) including an opening (103) for receipt of the stylus. Guide rails (302, 306) guide the stylus in the housing.
