Not my "Source" for Oral Hygiene

I've been disappointed by my Source toothbrush, by Radius. Initially attracted to the "100% renewable" claim on the package and the interesting handle design, I've found this to be a less-than-desirable choice. The handle is made from plant fibers, and comes with a replaceable brush head (recommended length of use per head: 90 days).

Unfortunately, the handle is also so bulbous that it doesn't fit in any standard travel case or toothbrush holder. The bristles are also so soft that it's difficult to get a good clean feeling during normal brushing (at least with the "medium" version that I purchased). I find myself hankering for a traditional toothbrush, one that I'll be able to travel with more easily, and use for a better twice-daily cleaning.
