So, basicly, you want everyone to have to pay $10 more and get a charger whether they need it or not.

I am sympathetic to your compaint in general. I have had many painful experiences buying expensive equipment lacking a proprietary required cable that was hard to find, and having to wait a long time for the cable while the expensive box sat unused.

But the charger cost is a good chunk of the cost of this reader and many many people alreader have a charger, probably several. And, it can be charged from a USB port on a computer.
