What kind of usage do you do with your pointer? I find that with code editing, it's annoying to pick up / put down the stylus all the time.
Have you tried a vertical mouse? That is the best for me: comfortable, yet mouse-y :)

This allows much faster transitions between typing and pointing than with a mouse.
I have not tried a vertical mouse, but I agree that it is likely to solve most of the comfort problems caused by a classic mouse.
Nevertheless, there is no chance for it to be as fast and accurate as a pen. With the pen I can point to any place on the screen pretty much instantaneously and using a negligible muscular force, due to its lightness.
