Lookie here! A pen-notepad combo! Carry this and you'll always have with you a mini portable commonplace book or agenda. Forget the bulky notepads or other similar tools that help you record stuff. Inside this pen's cap you will find a notepad that's more (ahem) than 2 inches wide and more than 2 feet long. That's enough space to write another Bible that says over and over again that: "God is an illusion!".

Here's a short look at what it can do. No matter the context, you can always record proverbs,

remarks made by your girlfriend (as a possible exhibit in a future fight), your grandpa's witty or wise sayings or even silly or crass things. And here comes the bad news. The thing comes with just 2 "papyrus" refills. If you accumulate too much entries, you have two options: either get another pen, or buy (for the right price evidently) more refills of paper for the pen's cap. How's that for a productive marketing strategy, eh? Good luck searching for cut rates refills!

Anyway, you could just use it as a tiny agenda that will help you remember phone numbers, appointments and e-mail addresses. Et voila! No more envelopes, napkins, post-its or cigarette packages to scribble on, just pull it out of its shell , tear off a small piece of paper and spread your own ten commandments.

For the forgetful, the Memo Pen is available on-line from Solutions for 29,95$. No word about the paper refill price. One last thing though: if you really want to try sending a message in a bottle, why not insert the note along with the pen? You'll surely make lots of "pen pals" using this method!
