I don't think anyone is slamming Seidio, outside of maybe a poorly packed shipping container, so I guess the real overall question within this thread is ... is this a question about Seidio (since they simply provided the charger that was reviewed) or a question about the charger itself and the company who is actually responsible for its design and production.

IMHO, this is less about Seidio than it is about the charger. Afterall, it's sold with other branding (Amzer) and in many more cases without any branding by the many online accessories vendors. To truly correct the issue, the OEM behind this charger needs to feel the heat and take corrective action.
