RichardSolo show discounts still in effect

If you were wandering the halls of Macworld Expo last week, you might have seen a familiar face -- no, not the everpresent TUAW video crews, but the gadget-loving visage of Richard Thalheimer, founder of The Sharper Image and current head honcho of RichardSolo. The RS booth was a brief walk away from The Sharper Image's floor presence, but I believe maturity prevailed and no miniature helicopters or USB missile launchers were seen to buzz the competition's displays.

The RichardSolo iPhone and iPod extended-life batteries were visible at the show on attendees' iPhones, and most people visiting the booth seemed to be satisfied customers or would-be customers (Steve reviewed the latest model in November). Buyers at the show were eligible for a $30 discount on the original and newer 1800 models, but if you missed that opportunity you can still save: through the end of January, use coupon code 'Macworld' at checkout and get $20 off either product (usually $50US for the lower-capacity model and $70US for the 1800 model).

There's a good list of still-running Macworld Expo discounts at dealmac, but if you know of any that aren't on the list, shout them out.

I still find it so hard to believe that is an actual gadget that made it to market.
Like others have said, it's almost as big as the iPhone itself, it could easily be broken off, hanging so far off the end of the iPhone/iPod Touch, damaging both the charger and Apple product and finally, most importantly...

Why the heck would you waste your money on such a horrible and big device when you can buy the InCase Power Slider whose form factor is so much more organic. I just don't get it.

Is anyone else making something like this for the iPhone?

now if they could make a dock charger converter... oh wait, it would be even more expensive than Griffin or Cablejoy

Just what you need, something 3/4 the size of your phone that you can break off. A freshman ID major could have come up with a better design.
