Works for me. Having different chargers for every cell phone is ridiculous and wastful.
The EU says by Jan. 2012 most new mobile phones will have a universal charging connector.
EU to force universal charger standard for mobile phones

The good part about this: About half the US market phones already do this, and those that don’t will quickly either adopt it or will see their sales drop off a cliff. I know lots of younger folks, and unless a phone has something super worth it (like the iPhone), not having a USB port you can charge from is a deal breaker. “It’s got a custom charger? No thanks. What else do you have?”
