Lamy Dialog 3 (announcement)

It's buzzing on the internet in foutainpen-country. A new capless fountainpen is coming. The manufacturer is Lamy. The name of the pen will be Lamy Dialog 3. I don't know for sure but I think it is their first capless design. On different foutainpenforums and networks it get's praise or some people say it looks like a flashlight. So it will be a pen you either love or hate.

I never had a capless foutainpen. But I like the design of the pen. The pen will cost about $ 225,= - $ 300,= The pen is due in september 2009 and can be pre-ordered on Swisher Pens (fine writing instruments & stationary)

Some pictures I found on the internet:

It look like the cap can get of the barrel so that you can also fill the pen with a converter.

Please let me know what you think of it.
