I picked up one myself in the past year, and find that for notetaking it's very much what I prefer these days. There's the old running-out-of-ink problem (this pen lays down a thick line, and even with a refillable cartridge, typically needs filling daily with heavy use, every few days if I'm slowing down).

The writing though is clear and preferable to other implements. Ballpoints are atrocious, rollerballs only slightly tolerable.
