And while at it, a mechanical one with thin lead as you'll never have to sharpen... like the above pictured mini Mont Blanc, the right size for small notebooks. Fits nicely under the elastic band on the top - notebook + pen in a neat package so you never have to rummage around in pockets for that blasted pen... If you insist on a rollerball in the same miniature size, try Caran d"Ache, they've got some neat silvery stuff that fits jeans or a suit without irony. Heh, irony? Nahh, important daily travel issues this... :D I say go with pencil, much less smudgy!
