    Hey, this is pretty cool, but instead of buying a $30 inkless pen, why not just spend the $30 on a jumbo box of pencils? Which, even if you write letters in pencil instead of email, will last you for many years beyond the inkless pen.

    Whatever, food for thought. I won't lie, I'd buy it.

    I wonder what the melting point is. I?d get one for my car if it wouldn?t melt. I?m sick of pens breaking down in the summer heat. I poked around on the linked page but couldn?t find any real data on it.

    If it can only be cut with a diamond, the melting point is probably extremely high.

    using that many pencils wouldn`t be good for trees. the metal pen is a cool idea and would make an unusual gift but how many of us write on paper that much anymore?
