It depends which version of the pen you buy - some (the calligraphy sets, for example) come with this piston converter in the box. They're pretty easy to get separately, though. I'm using standard cartridges in mine at the moment - I'm in the middle of moving house and all my stuff's in boxes. It's handy to be able to switch between the two. I'm missing real inks, though - Especially because I'm in France, and even the tiny small-town newsagents (now I've realized how many fountain pen appreciators there are here I'm going to sneak a photo next time I go into one) stock J.Herbin and Lamy and Waterman and Clairefontaine paper and and and... so much temptation...
