Japan is known for its tech advances - I swear I saw iPhone-level phones over in Tokyo circa '03 - so it's not surprising that an Eastern third-party is delivering the killer peripheral Apple should have already done. Brightonnet is now offering an iPhone/iPod Touch pen. As the site exhibits, you tap the screen to touch, hold the pen to push/slide. It reportedly is made of resin, which won't adversely affect the screen of your $500 purchase. The bendable tip may be just for show, but it sure makes it seem harmless.

The Amazon purchase store was down at press time, so no word on price.
