So you pay more, but you get a more versatile setup. Plus the ability to use mains charging, AA batteries, built in battery, or any USB port. I even use it in my car with a cigarette lighter USB adapter.

True, but that's all I need it for.
My iPhone came with a charger which also charges my iPod and they are the only other devices that I would need a generic charger for.
My Nikon cameras and my Panasonic camcorder all use removable batteries that require a unique charger, so it would be no good for them.
So at the end of the day the £5 I spent with Amazon was a lot cheaper than getting an iGo just to charge my 650. And as I'm never away from a source of mains power for any great length of time the ability to use AA batteries or the built in battery would not be a huge benefit to me.
But I can see for you it must be very useful.
