I'm only a casual pen-person (not a casual-pen person!) and am just chiming in here with a couple things that surprised me about this pen...
1. Finish looks surprisingly good in person! (I got stealth black) 2. I am having the same issues with the pen needing a moment to get started again after even sometimes a brief pause. I have not used the piston converter yet, because I have no ink to fill it with (that's how casual of a pen-person I am!), so this experience is purely based on the supplied cartridge. 3. The fine nib is gigantic! This makes me long for my cheapo Lamy Safari extra fine. I will definitely be looking at a drop-in replacement nib that is more precise. Very happy to find some recommendations in the comments here! 4. While looking at photos of this pen, it was somehow lost on me how large it is - diameter wise. I was expecting and wishing for a thinner, more elegant barrel (I've got girl hands). I wish this info had been listed in the specs along with the length of the pen. Maybe it wouldn't have changed my mind about opting in on the drop, but at least I would have known what I was getting into.
Thanks to all the other posters here, from whom I am picking up lots of great pen-knowledge!

FitzGThePenAddict's review says that the twsbi 580 nibs fit, but you'd have to check on that
