Review: You basically have to have it

Unless you are seriously into delayed gratification and don't mind waiting up to over 12 hours to recharge your new HD with the USB cord included in the box, you have to have this charger.  Fortunately if you buy it at the same time as your new HD they discount it 50% and it's not a major pain.  If you wait and get it later you will really hate your decision as it doubles in price when bought separately.  It's a good charger, charges the HD (mine is the 7 inch) fast, taking only a few hours max.  It stays fairly cool too, unlike some chargers I've used on other devices in the past which heated up quite a bit, meaning power wasteage.  In fact, I tried leaving it plugged in when it wasn't charging and it sank to room temperature, which is supposed to mean it is not drawing current at all from what I have read.  I really like that!
