Users are understandably a little worked-up about this! As I say; a show-stopper!

I'm sure Kobo didn't design a proprietary charging system so they could sell you their proprietary chargers at an inflated price for the simple reason that at this time they don't even sell chargers. More likely it is to charge the battery in the most efficient way possible. They don't sell replacement batteries either. But what do you expect for $200?
