Mine's in the mail. Thanks!
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.

I got my free glowpen yesterday, and it's awesome. It's easily the nicest pen I've ever used.
Here's a picture I took of it in its case. Note the three extra batteries.
Here's another picture with the lightshow engaged. There are 4 settings for this -- off, solid, slow, and fast. You can cycle between them just by clicking the button.

There's quite a cheating technique involving these pens in tests.
There's a special pen that you can see only with blue light so you write down something on a paper and it looks like it's blank, then you use the glowing pen to see what is written and you get the answers for the test :).
Of course I've never done it myself :rolleyes:

You mean it's totally free? Even if delivered all the way to Norway? I don't have to shell out a single dime for transport or customs, or anything? If I order one, I'm not agreeing to all sorts of shady stuff? I'm not committing to anything?
The pen was cool-lookin', and I want one! :)

The pen was cool-lookin', and I want one! :) They shipped to me in Canada, and I didn't have to pay a dime. Just fill out the form and wait 4-6 weeks.

I actually bought one of these pens, a little over a year ago. It fell apart in less than a week.

maybe they have released a patch / update since then :)

Weeee! It flashes and everything!
It took me about 20 minutes to figure out I had to open the thing and remove the little plastic cover between the battery and the springie-thing, but the genius that I am, I finally got the pen to work! Come August 12th when school starts, I imagine girls will be throwing themselves at me for having this incredibly cool pen :)
It took a while to get it delivered. I ordered it on June 17th, and today it's July 19th. Oh well, all good and flashy things come to those who wait!
Thanks a bunch, Deebye! I will definitely keep an eye out for the next installment of "Freebies from Deebye" :) (I could use sub-woofer for my surround system. See what you can do, eh? :P)

You're not nice. I missed this one, and now you bring it back from the dead and flaunt it. The offer is gone :mellow:

As incredible as it is, seeing that it has owned my life for the last three days straight (must . . . stare at . . . blinking light), I'd be more than willing to pass mine onto the less fortunate and needy :P
I mean it, PM me if you are interested.

Yep,. 7-8 damage and very fast attack speed with a random chance of crushing blow goes a long way... at least longer than before ;)
