I agree with Geoff about a standard flash being more durable. That's what I use, with a Lambency diffuser fitted to it. I find that as well as diffusing the flash it also spreads the flash more evenly than a standard diffuser. The flash can then be used mounted on an off camera flash bracket or just mounted on the normal camera hot shoe.
Mounted on an off camera bracket as shown below it can be a little cumbersome and during the latter half of this year I started using mine just mounted on the camera hot shoe and to be quite honest I couldn't tell any real difference in the images.
