Last night, the True Utility Telepen Telescopic Pen
I ordered from Amazon arrived. Naturally, I had the box open before I was even in the front door. It is perfect! Although it took me a few moments to figure out that there was no release mechanism for the pen from the cap -- just really tight friction -- it was exactly as I had hoped. The collapsed length is just a little longer than traditional house keys and just a little shorter than traditional car keys.
Whenever I drive to a geocache now, I am guaranteed to have a pen with me!!!
Another exciting thing related to this pen was being mentioned on two fantastic podcasts. If you aren't already a listener to the new Cache-A-Maniacs podcast network and the fantastic PodCacher podcast, you should be! Both of these geocaching podcasts are regulars for me and feature the best news and information from the world of geocaching. These are the two episodes that mention me sharing information about this pen:

I can relate. I recently downloaded the Geocaching iPhone app to my phone and it works great. The problem is that I am quick to take it out and select "find geocaches near here". Though I'm prepared for the hunt, I'm not always prepared to sign the log book. The pen that you've purchased makes great sense.
