Yes, I also thought of that. But I need power for the Empeg in the box, and the adaptor does the job well, so..

But not such a big deal for me, as I (now) have multiple Empegs, which means I also have an extra adaptor (especially the new cute mini one!). But you have a point there.. others may consider placing some huge RadioShack brick in their dock, and saving the smaller lighter weight Empeg/Rio adaptor for carry-around use (eg. office).
