Water purification pen?

[thedomwayround]

Am heading to Southern Africa soon and think I need something to purify water with. I was looking at just getting some tablets but came across this. A steripen which kills the bugs with ultraviolet light.

Does it work? Does anyone use it? What advice would you have for gettign safe drinking water?

Thanks
