More frills?

The power mat comes with an adapter so you can charge a unit without a specialized case. It's a small block that sits on the powermat and has a short cord coming off of it to plug into your phone. The cord is short and the phone will sit on the mat. The Pre has this tech built into the phone.

So basically you are still plugging it in? haha. Yea, the power mat would be the closest thing but as others said it requires you to purchase the mat, and then also an extra piece for your phone which doesn't exist for the Hero yet and will just make it bulkier.
