...newly reopened Fontainebleau Miami Beach resort's $1 billion renovation included putting an Apple iMac in each of the hotel's 1,504 rooms. With that, the Fontainebleau went "paperless": no in-room stationery, phone books, menus, newspapers - that's now available online only. Still, we figured the hotel's guests - along with the rest of the world - might want to write down a note now and again, so we fingered some of the most unusual and travel-friendly pens on the market...
