Manufacturers will always warn users to use the bundled accessories of their products. However, users have become more and more resourceful when it comes to swapping chargers and power plugs. Moreover, because tablets, smartphones and mobile devices have become so similar in input/output voltage it's actually easy to "swap" chargers. Some combinations I've tried include Sony Playstation Portable charger working with the Sony PRS ereaders and ASUS tablet chargers working with my Creative Zen MP3 player.
The 5V 1.2A ASUS AC adapter actually works with MP3 players like the Creative Zen.
Obviously, care should be taken when attempting to use chargers designed for other products. Always check the voltage label on the charger or adapter. Besides, third-party power chargers and adapters that work with a multitude of devices are cheap and widely available in stores such as Newegg and Amazon.
