I personally am in love with Uniball JetStreams. They are the nicest pens I've ever used (and I've used a LOT). I don't mind the Pilot, but it didn't feel right; the JetStream flows like a gel, but dries like a ballpoint.

They're expensive, about $8AUD per pen, but totally worth it.

I purchase my pens from jetpens.com and I get my Jetstreams from Japan for like $3 or $4 for one's not available in stores.

Look at penaddict.com for how deep the pen nerdom gets.
