If only the desktop charger capability would have been included on the SDS100, that would satisfy me, as my only (emphasis added) complaint is the constant having to hook up the cable, charge, and hope that opening, closing the rubber door it will last as long as I hope the scanner will - a long long time. I plug and unplug at least two - three times a day, and even with the upcoming larger battery, I expect at least twice a day. I know we are supposed to be able to get an external battery charger in the future, but then it’s remove the battery door replace and close instead of the rubber side door. How nice to just pop the scanner in a desktop charger, saving wear on any doors or covers. Sure would have been nice and ai would have paid even more for that feature as it would be worth it.
