Do They Sell The In-The-Box AC Charger Separately

So I've noticed for every Android I've owned (OG Droid, Droid X, Droid 2, Thunderbolt, Bionic and now the Nexus) that you get a nice quality charger in the box but I can never seem to find the same chargers for some from Verizon or even Samsung/Motorola HTC etc....

Is it possible to order the exact same charger from Samsung like that which came with the Galaxy Nexus? I really love the small square brick form factor (although I know Griffin sells one very similar) and I'd prefer to have the manufacturer one. Those Eco-Green Motorola MicroUSB chargers suck lol and they're AC plug only not just USB

I did see that one I guess I'm more wondering why the exact same charger as in the box isn't sold anywhere...it's like a little tease you get with your phone lol and then you can never find it again :)

lol I hear ya. Maybe one will be available soon. The phone just came out 11 days ago :D

This isn't a moto phone ya know :p gawh Moto does it right when launching a phone their accessories are abundant and mostly available on launch day!

I received this charger on saturday and it is indeed the same one that comes in the box. The cable is slightly different but also a Samsung branded cable.

It's the same, because the part numbers match. 4th line down:

Correct, the included usb is the older style samsung, not the newer cable.

Or save a dollar for one without the usb cable? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005OT05IE
I'd just get the extra cable.
