Default Inositol for PCOS (not DCI)

I have just come across this article http://findarticles.com/p/articles/m..._9/ai_n6228191 Effects of inositol on ovarian function and metabolic factors in women with PCOS: a randomized double blind placebo-controlled trial published in Alternative Medicine Review, Sept, 2004 by S. Gerli, M. Mignosa, G.C. Di Renzo
which concludes that "
These data support a beneficial effect of inositol in improving ovarian function in women with oligomenorrhea and polycystic ovaries."

There seems to be such a big fuss over the horrendously expensive and difficult to source d-chiro inositol (DCI) but not so much over this far more common, easily available and more economical option.

Has anyone tried plain inositol? If so, what experiences have you had with it?
