Default Portable I-phone Charger Recommendation

Does anyone have a recommendation for a reasonably priced portable/battery i-phone charger?

I can't speak from experience but I've seen this one touted. I've been considering it myself.

iGo Green

The Amazon ratings aren't that great I see now, but this blog writer loves hers.


edit: I thought the blogger had an iPhone but I'm not sure now, though it is supposed to work with it -- just not sure on the cable to add to the charger.

Thanks! I've been searching on Amazon and reading a lot of reviews. I hadn't found this particular one yet though. So far, all the chargers have had mixed reviews.

I wonder if there's a charger that will charge an i-phone, ipod, and Kindle.

I have had real good luck with Rockfish chargers for my iPhone, iPad, and other iProducts.

if the kindle has a USB cord then the Rockfish one I have has a USB port in addition to the iPhone/iEverything connector.

Thanks. I decided I didn't really need one for the Kindle because it keeps a charge for a long time when just reading. So I ended up with an inexpensive Energizer Energi to Go for the phone and ipod.

Too late but, I have the iGo battery operated charger. We got it to take to Finland because one of our iPods wasn't holding it's charge long enough. Worked great for us and has tons of interchangeable tips for other devices.

I know I'm late to the party but here is a pretty cool charger. It is the GoalZero solar charger. Here are the specs: http://www.goalzero.com/shop/p/132/G...obile-Kit/1:1/

ETA: You can plug your USB to Iphone directly into the USB output
