Or most realize more than you may think. Perhaps the ability of the smaller battery of the main unit to hold a charge may decrease faster than the PW3 or Voyage, but even if that happens (and there's no evidence that the main unit batteries are wearing out quickly yet), the cover battery -almost the size of that of the iPhone 4 & 5- doesn't require recharging nearly as often as the typical iPhone so it's very likely to last a long time. As long as it does, you can use the main unit with the cover and it still will be smaller than a PW3 or Voyage.
