I actually agree that chargers should be more efficient

Have you ever noticed how hot your chargers get when they are going? I think that more efficient power supplies should be implemented because of the sheer numbers of them out there. Waste of energy if you ask me.

I don't need accessories from a wireless company!

A signal from the tower to my phone NOTHING else do I need from a frinkin wireless company. I refuse to pay rip off prices! And unlike many of you, I'm not afraid to buy things on ebay for HALF the price.

Screw ATT and their rip off prices!!!
did you notice it said priced "similar" to other chargers? That's exactly what the problem with this so called "green" technology. it friggin costs more!! why would i pay more for something i already have that works just as well if not better.

all phones should have SOLAR panel on back!!!!

when you not using your phone at home, put it near the window to let the sun charges your phone!
I usually charge my phone overnight while i sleep, so.....now what. Fyi there are solar phone chargers if you dont mind paying $40+ for one that will take hours to fully charge your phone.

as long as its the same

I believe the EU passed a law for the shape of the plug to all be the same. I have been noticing more plugs being the microUSB across manufacturers here as well.
