Deceptive and cheap
I bought this pen from BoxWave, which they show as compatible with my table PC. As soon as I received the pen, I realized that not only was the pen NOT compatible with my laptop, it is also pretty poorly made.

Also, trying to get BoxWave to respond to any inquiries is near impossible...as they don't list a phone number. They only communicate by email.

The only reason I give it one star is because the laser light and pen light are nice and fun to use. The actual ink pen writes pretty nicely, as well.

Nice Pen
I just got mine yesterday. Feels very nice in the hand when writing and using it as a stylus. The stylus tip glides over my PDA screen very nicely. There seems to be some extra weight in the middle of the pen, changing the center of balance more towards the middle. The laser is bright in low light areas, and the flashlight will adequately light up about 2-5 yards.

My only complaints are that the buttons for using the laser pointer and LED flashlight rattle around a bit in the pen, and that there's no way to prevent the buttons from being pushed while the pen is riding around in my pocket.

Update:
I've had this pen for about a month, and the tip broke off. The glue holding the tip to the collar gave way, right in the middle of a meeting. I would revise this review to 2 stars, but I can't change the rating.
