Pop-pup kettle

In my constant search for fantastic cooking and camping gear I have found this today..... I always take a kettle / tea pot with me... but have started to leave it at home since I switched from the Trangia to a MSR stove that fits nicely in my pots.... if I take the kettle out.... could this be the solution?

Saw that in my local kitchen porn shop about three weeks ago. Initial impression was "what a good idea, just what I need" but I do remember there was a drawback (apart from the price). Unfortunately I can't remember what it was so not much help. I'll have to go and have another look later.

Good Idea, but only any good for boiling up water/liquids, whereas a pot with a lid will do the same, but can also be used for cooking in (or washing)...

There must be something intrinsingly British about wanting to lug a kettle around with you ,however I have detected a flaw in Mr Cashmore's quest for the "compleat traveller's impedimenta " ,to wit- a collapsable teapot .
No self respecting epicurean would set foot from home without one .
