This pen is neat. Draw a circuit on a piece of paper. Talk about prototyping gone wild, this thing could have some cool applications.

These things have been around for a while. I think this may be the first ball-point pen version, but still not ground breaking stuff.
I use one from MG chemicals to repair the conductive film on the backs of rubber push buttons for remote controls. -

I know this is an old thread, but I'm not sure why this was news even in 2011. I bought one of these in 2001, and it wasn't a new product then.

We used them to overclock early Athlon chips. It's also sold under the Caig brand. Price sure has gone up, I paid $8 back then.
