If you’re like me, you multi-task all day and have notes all over your office and probably at home. So when I came across the Dane-Elec Z-Pen my heart did a little jig. The thought that I had found something that would transcribe all of my notes into type-written text that could easily be filed […]

Here’s the scenario: You’re in the dark and you need to write something. By some weird coincidence, you’re not a mutant that can see in the dark (if you happen to be a mutant that can see in the dark, well yay for you). So, now what do you do? You use the Pilot’s Pen

Here’s something that I’ve never seen before… The Messograf Caliper / Pen is an ink pen with built in calipers. Nifty idea! I measure things all the time, so this would come in very handy for me. It has a 0.1mm metric and 1/16″ inch scale. The price is $27.90.

I don’t know why, but I have a thing for unique and tiny ink pens. I’ve been a fan of the Inka Pen for awhile, but when I saw the PicoPen from TEC Accessories, I knew I had to try one because it looked like a slicker alternative to the Inka. Let’s check it out.

The Foldz Flat Pen is a stainless steel writing instrument with leather trim that folds down to the size of a credit card, for easy storage in your wallet. The design is interesting, but I’m not sure how comfortable it would be to write with due to the triangular shape that it folds into. I

I’m going to warn you all right now – I’m currently obsessed with finding unique writing instruments. Namely, small ball point pens. In my surfing adventures tonight, I have found the BaliYo. This ‘device’ resembles a butterfly knife, but is actually a ballpoint pen that contains a Fisher Space Pen pressurized ink cartridge. The interesting

I’m always on the lookout for unique pens. Expecially small ones that lend themselves well to carrying in a small gear bag. I think I found one that may replace the Inka Pen that I’ve been using for awhile now. It’s the Valiant Concepts Stainless Steel EDC Pen. It’s made from a bar of Titanium

To be honest, before I reviewed the KROMA and U2 Ultra LED Flashlights I had never heard of SureFire. But after using several of their extremely well made flashlights, I have come to further realize that (99% of the time) you get what you pay for. Last year SureFire introduced their first Pen, the EWP-01,

SureFire is normally known for their high quality flashlights, but they also offer a nice looking pen. It has a hard-anodized aerospace-grade aluminum body with a stainless steel clip and tip. It uses Schmidt® Technology easyFLOW 9000 ink cartridges. The Blue version looks pretty snazzy, but the $90 price tag knocks it out of the
I know you want this roller ball pen from ACME Studios, Inc. and designer Ben Hall. I mean who wouldn’t want a cool retro pen like this one. It looks like something the Flash would use. Too bad that it costs $130. Ouch! I think I’ll just keep using a good old Bic.

A couple days ago I received an email from someone asking for advice on multi-point pens. I posted that question here on The Gadgeteer so that other people could weigh in with their suggestions. Harold M. Goldner saw that post and did one better. He wrote a comparison review and asked me to post it

Kids sure are lucky these days because they have laptops and PDAs to help them with their school work. Back in my day,
all we had were pencils, that we had to sharpen with a pocket knife as we walked to school barefoot in the
snow. Ok, maybe it wasn’t that bad… But really, all we had were pens and pencils to take notes
during class. I used to hate taking
notes in school because my mind had a really bad habit of wandering. Fast forward to present day
and not much has changed. My mind still wanders and I still don’t like taking notes. But, now I have a new tool that can help fill in the
gaps during those times when I’m supposed to be paying attention during meetings. It’s an electronic pen called the Pulse Smartpen from Livescribe.
