This is what you want:
http://www.amazon.com/CanaKit-Conduc...ductive+thread
It's called conductive thread. You'll want to make a small knot and then thread it through the fingertip of your glove. Then on the inside make another small knot to hold it in place, and leave a decent sized wad of thread in there to make contact with your finger. That's all it takes! The knot on the outside will now work on all touch screen devices. I do this to all my pointer fingers and thumbs for my gloves. I use the exact thread I linked to as well.

I use this and it works AWESOME. There seems to be plenty of liquid in the bottle to do several pairs. I applied it to just the pointer finger, thumb and middle fingers. It's been working for a month now without needing a second application.

Agreed Bob. My phone serves 1 purpose on a Ryde, and that is to connect my Helmet with the 14000 songs I have in the cloud. If the music stops, then it's time for a break anyway. I. Let all calls on a ryde go to VM.

The only reason my phone is associated with my Bluetooth in my helmet is so I know if someone is calling me. If someone calls, I pull over, check the voicemail, and, if needed, call them back. Since I have music on the phone, too, I'll listen to it, just because it is there. I don't talk on my phone while driving my car or ryding my . . . too distracting and no phonecall is worth dying over.
