Yes, multi-functionality is best for me. I mean, we're keeping a Newton
around so that we don't have to shuffle all those papers. Well, I don't want
to shuffle around 2 or 3 pens/pencils either!
The best pen, IMHO, is still not there. That would be a Rotring Quattro with
a Cross DigitalWriter stylus, the best stylus tip I ever used. If only Cross
would have a good multi-function pen, I would jump on it. However, like I
said before, this idea to have one cap while the pen has 2 ends doesn't work
for me...
