Another unique and understated detail about this Lamy, is that the country of origin – Germany; is stamped on the UNDERSIDE of the clip. It is completely unnoticeable unless you look for it. Beautiful.

Cheryl, I HAVE to ask: since you’re using the Fisher Space Pen, does that mean you can ink upside down and underwater? ;)

This stylus sounds interesting; thanks for the review. Even though I'm trying to be as paperless as possible, I am still a total pen freak (buying them for use with my Moleskines), so I'm always buying interesting pens. :) My current alternate stylus for the P1610 is a Fisher Space Pen with a stylus end on the outside. http://www.spacepen.com/Public/Products/BulletPen/Stylus/index.cfm?productID=288 I love it because I can have a pen with me all the time (it's small enough to keep in my pocket; you'd be surprised how useful having a pen all the time is), and the fit and finish is pretty nice. The only thing I would improve about it is to offer it in the rainbow titanium finish (I have another bullet pen in this finish...so cool-looking :) ). :)

If I can put in one warning on this… be careful how much you spend on these 4-in-1 pens. I have had several over the years. My most recent one was a Fisher “space” pen. I like their cartridges because they tend to write smoother in my opinion (relatively speaking). But all-in-all, I have not found much difference between the expensive ones and the cheap ones. To be honest, they’re pretty much all the same thing. Most of them do not write very well (ink), but the tips are truly excellent on the P1510 and P1610.

If they came out with one with GEL, then I would probably go for that.

Hey James: I enjoy your "On the run with Tablet PC's" and keep up with the blog. There is a much better deal out there at http://www.stylusplus.com/ their top of the line 4-way pen clocks in at a whopping 12.49 each. There are endless configuration options: with or without a pencil, 3 different stylus colors and 5 ink color choices. I have bought and used many of these for years. My longest lasting one endured 2 1/2 years of work on paper, Palm Pilots and anything else imaginable. They are just the right weight, have perfect balance, always work and are just about impossible to destroy. I feel much better about loosing a $13 dollar pen than a $50 one so I usually keep 2 or 3 around. Check out the site if you like.
