Anyone try filtered water bottles?

I'm curious about getting a water bottle with a built in filter. Yes, my brita fiter at home works fine but water from the tap elsewhere just isn't as appealing to me. Do these bottles work?

I had a Brita but it didnt seem to flow fast enough for me when I squeezed it. You have to squeeze it much harder to get the same amount of water.

The Brita filter is supposed to be immersed in the water. When it is in the spout of the bottle it cant do its job properly as it it out of the water all the time except when you are drinking.
