Summary: Great notebook but....
Comment: Great notebook, very convenient. My only complaint would be the paper type used. It is a slick and thin paper, which does add to the utility at the expense of luxury. If you're used to Journals that use heavy rag paper, you'll be disappointed. The other downside to the thin and slick paper is that Gel Inks and Fountain Inks will smear and bleed through. I have switched to Ballpoint with mine, I found my Cross Ion and nicer fountain pens useless with this journal.
For men, this will be a bit too big to fit in a jean pocket. Yes, it fits in the back pocket, but you don't want to sit on that lump all day. I recommend the Cahiers, which are small and light and easily fit in the same pocket as your wallet. I use a Nintendo DS case, which holds two notebooks and a pen.

Summary: low-tech is the way to go
Comment: i am a high tech person, quite a geek when it comes to gadgets.
i found the moleskine notepad the perfect thing to whip out in meetings and take notes once i got tired of using my pda or laptop.
i find myself more efficient with it.
theres a nice little pocket in the back to put business cards in. and hey, if you dont have notes to take you can always doodle, but it does have that somewhat permanant feel

Comment: These well-made pocket-sized notebooks are perfect for keeping NOTES on a journey - whether by foot, car, train or plane - small convenient, durable. For those who want a sketchbook, this is not the right item. There is a Moleskin pocket SKETCH book that has fewer pages, with higher quality paper, for that purpose.

Summary: Quality Notebook
Comment: I couldn't believe what a hard time I had trying to find a small, hardback, unlined notebook with book-like binding! I'll admit that I bought this product because it was the only one I could find that fulfilled these requirements. But I am extremely pleased with the overall quality of this notebook. I am using it to record my favorite quotes and it is perfect for that purpose thus far. The only downfalls I can say may stem from the fact that I am writing in it with a fountain pen. The ink tends to "vein out" a bit if you will and I can't write on both sides of the paper because the ink is too dark. Otherwise I love the appearance of both the cover and the paper. I can't speak for how it handles for sketching. I also like the small pocket on the inside of the back cover. With shipping it is a bit pricey, but definitely a great product!
