Rating: 1 (out of 5)
Summary: I-Go charger
Comments: I think it was silly that this product was endorseed to be purchased along with the Kindle, however it does not have the proper linkage (tip?) that matches!! So, there it is, in the box along with the kindle, and totally useless. |

Summary: "Needs attachments to work"
Comments: I thought I needed this for my Kindle to work. I did not. Then I found out it needs attachments. If I can find another use for it I may keep it. |

Summary: Four and a half stars -
Comments: I am ordering this item, however I have another iGo charger and have been pleased. (Which is why I am purchaseing another.) I found that my last cellphone charged quicker with this charger than with the1that was supplied with it, and the charge seemed to go deeper -- it lasted longer.
I did agree with1reviewer above, though -- the tip that was supposedly specific to my phone (then, a Nokia) was fairly loose-fitting, and after just a few uses, it would fall out unless I was careful to lay my phone flat and make sure gravity wasn't pulling on the cord at all. That seemed fairly inexcusable. And I resent that they overprice the tips.
They also seem to slant their offers towards promoting certain manufacturers over others. I was looking at their gadgets on their website, and they have some deals where an item comes with several tips. It greatly added to the expense of the item, and the tips were often contradictory - if I go with1cellphone, why would I have 2 or 3 other brands, too?
Plus I am an Apple user, and none of the tips for any item were Apple-tips, so it seemed that they were practicing a prejudicial business practice. I would pay a premium for all the tips that were "included", however they'd all be landfill to me - not1tip was anything I could use.
This seems a much better deal - just pay for the basic device, and pay for what tips you will need separately. however please, iGo, get it together about getting a proper fit.
I rate it highly because the actual charging worked fine, and was superlative to the hack equipment that actually came with my old phone. |

Summary: Tip not included ... yes this means you still have to spend over $10 to get this to work.
Comments: expensive and tip sold separately!! That means you still have to purchase the tip for an additional $10. In addition I had a hard time with the retractable system. |

Summary: Disappointed
Comments: The product is not as versatile as indicated. Since it was on the page with the Kindle, I thought it was used for it overseas however it isn't. It also doesn't work on my Blackberry. |
