Disposable ink cartidges - convenient, sometimes proprietary.

Ink bladders - dip the pen into the ink and squeeze a rubber bladder to 
evacuate the air and draw in ink. Some cartridge pens are convertible and 
have a bladder.

Some pens allow you to fill the body with ink, but that seems awfully 
dangerous.

Hey, the first time I've seen a gemini link advertised, I tried hitting it 
but got an error message from Geminaut that it wasn't a valid site.
