Radical pen redesign

I have no idea if this "ergonimic" pen design is any better than plain old stick-pens, but it sure looks cool and intuitively useful. Link (Thanks, Ronny!)

Update: Modesty sez, "I makes no sense at all, until the moment you figure out how to hold it, at which point it feels like the most natural thing in the world, it just kinda sits there being useful. I write with it all the time now (well when I write and not type anyway)."

Update 2: Rachel sez, "I've had one for a while and while it's a neat concept I don't find it that comfortable and it's pretty much impossible to write quickly with it. What's interesting, though (at least to me) is it comes with an interchangeable PDA stylus point and (more interesting to me) the inventor went to my high school (Paly in Palo Alto, Aalifornia). My understanding is he came up with the pen concept while in detention there."
