It's also a nice, high quality, miniUSB cable for transferring files to your reader(s). Well worth it even at $7 -- I've already used my power pack/Rocketfish charging cable combination to charge three of my old readers. It works well.

(I should mention that Power Packs can be bought for as low as $5 now (check out 5 and Below). Good ones -- I have a couple Motorolas -- can be bought on eBay cheaply.

Here's a link to the ones like I've got (except mine are black). Two for $11 including shipping.

Of course you can find more powerful ones also.
Power pack batteries vary widely in quality based on Amazon user reviews. I see a lot of the no name ones dying after a short time per Amazon reviews. I but Anker brand ones and they claim to use Panasonic cells, some of the best made.
