Now you can tell I’m a nerd from my pen and pad

I bought this very special pen recently and I have been kind of using it. I have yet to take it out of the house with me and it has thus far stayed a private toy.

I not only hope that it will help me with note taking, I think it will be useful in my usability and UI design tasks.
