I just bought a spare Nook charger since they're only 15 bucks and mine crapped out (they're replacing it though) so I just wanted an extra backup for both phone and Nook

They're all "USB_________" I just forget what the blank is.

I have more spare Droid chargers then I can count because the Blackberry I had before the Droid the charger works for the Driod, the boyfriends Blackberry, both of our bluetooth headset chargers work and my old bluetooth charger works (it is MIA) but it's good to know when I'm in the car and my Nook is on low battery and I'm waiting for him to get off of work I can use the car charger to charge it

I think that I have decided on the Droid 2 Global. If I am interpreting websites correctly, it would be $149.00 from Verizon and free from Sam's Club (when I get a $40) membership.

So..guess it's off to Sam's tomorrow to see about it!

Micro USB. My Kindle and Evo use the same port.

It's freaking awesome to have so many charging options open to me, and I can also unplug the micro USB for my phone and use the plug part as an adapter for my iPod cord, too.

Very true! I can also plug my HTC's cord into my Apple USB/outlet base that I normally have my MP3 player attached to. I love that the chargers aren't just one long cord hardwired to a base. So much convenience.

Mom's old BB charger does not work for her Droid.
iPhone however is the same cord as your iPod/if you have an iHome/charging dock for your ipod

Droid 2 and X have slide out keyboards, it's awesome. Also you can install Swype which is fun too.

Lynn: You can change the screen time out length. Touch the applications icon and find Settings. Choose Display, then Screen Timeout. You don't want to make it too long or you risk butt dialing people/opening apps without meaning to, etc. But, when it is too short, it's annoying. I have mine set to 1 minute and am considering 2 minutes instead.

Also you don't have to hit the keypad to bring the screen up, tapping the power button will do it.

So very glad we had this talk about chargers because I got a Nook yesterday for my birthday and am loving that I can interchange my Nook and Droid chargers.

I really wish there was a universal charger for everything.

It seems like the micro USB is getting there. Apple just has to be special.

Apple knows that there are die-hard Mac users out there who will go out and buy everything they sell. The good thing for all of the "Mac people" is that their iPod, iPhone, and iPad share the same charger.

But I completely agree. If they'd jump on the bandwagon and change the port on Apple products, a universal charger would be awesome!
