It is a nice part, and likely there are similar parts out there. This was just the first one that I found that met my needs, and I have since put together libraries with my board design suite, so there is very little impetus to move to a different part. These things aren't cheap though, but I do have a certain pride when it comes to my work, and if someone looks at one of my products and says "holy crap, you actually splurged for part XYZ?", it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. I'm not one to do things by halves.
