    If its the Uniross X-Press 300 charger then its available in 3 retail packaged versions:

    - with 4 AA 2300mAh
    - with 4 AA 1300mAh
    - with 4 AAA 900mAh

    Anyway, I'm happy with the Directfoto deal of £11.99 for the X-Press 300 charger, 4 AA 2300mAH, 4 AAA 900mAH, C cell converters and D cell converters :D

    So I guess it's all down to which Netto store you go to?

    Hey Stixman7, that sounds like a great little charger!

    Don't forget though:
    - it doesn't come with any batteries.
    - it only really comes into its' own if you travel in the car or outside the UK alot.
    - no mention of its ability to charge Ni-Cd. Does it charge only Ni-Mh batteries?
    - it's not free p&p, and I quote:
