(More customer reviews)I really really love the concept for this. Put your item on it and it charges! Brilliant!! however....you have to have a special case for your particular item. I guess that makes sense, but you end up having more device specific "stuff." (And they don't offer cases for all devices.) I currently have a sparkly case for my phone (I know) and I don't want to get rid of it for a black powermat receiver case! (the cases are about 15 bucks.) Without a case, you plug in the mat, put a little "pod" thing on the mat, but you still have to plug your phone into the pod...so you really haven't saved any steps at all. You still have to plug it in.
I think it would be nice to travel with since you only need the mat, pod and the included adapters (it comes with adapters to fit popular items.) It also comes with a little case to hold the extra adapters, but they all don't fit! I thought that was goofy to design a special item to hold the included adapters, but only some fit in it.
It would be nice if phones, ipods, etc. came "mat-ready", but they don't. At least not yet. I do use it. It is nice having a little area that can charge my ipod, blackberry, and sansa and only having to fool with the adapters, not all those chargers. So it is convenient, just not wirelessly for me yet. I may change my mind about my current case and spring for the powermat one. Easy might trump sparkly.
edit: I have had this for a while now, and I do use it everyday. I like it more than I did when I first got it. I like that I can plug the adapter thing in once place, then put the stuff on the mat instead of reaching for the cord near some outlet(I have my mat in a drawer...i ran an extra outlet behind one of my kitchen cabinets so I can plug it in there. Keys, change, phones and the mat can all go in the top drawer as we walk in the house.) I keep the adapters right next to it in a little box and charge my blackberry, ipod, and iphone alternately. It is nicer than having all those cords with the chunky blocks on one end and a power strip in there.) P.S., I still kept my sparky case!
