Unfortunately, I've never seen anything like this at this price point in the US. There's Moleskine, obviously, but they're crazy expensive and the journals don't lay flat on a desktop which drives me nuts. There are grid books at art stores like Blick, but those are even more expensive.
This might a be a good compromise. I should go to my local Blick and check this one out:
The only thing I've ever had from the US that came close was a 5x7" JournalBooks 91340 that Freescale gave me as a promotional giveaway. It's a little larger, but had a durable plastic cover and a pen holder which was pretty sweet. It seems you can only order these in bulk as a custom-branded item. Perhaps someone enterprising could kickstart up 100 orders and do a foil-embossed HN-branded cover for people to purchase. I guess HN needs a logo, too. =)
I use to get these fantastic blank journals that were hard cover bound back in the day from Borders Books before they went out of business. I still have a few from the late 90s. I would love to see something like that with a grid.
