The European Union announced on 22-DEC that the project implementation of a standard mobile devices charger will become real in 2011. Several mobile devices industry companies have agreed to help EU users to simplify their life and provide a micro-USB charger plug as standard.
The list of companies includes: Alcatel, Apple, Atmel, Emblaze, Huawei, LG, Motorola, NEC, Nokia, Qualcomm, RIM, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Texas Instruments. Of course there are already smartphones which already are on market and have micro-USB as charger but starting with 2011 this will be an Europe standard for all producers.
This is great for users, especially for those who have more than one mobile phone or have other mobile devices which use this type of charger plug, like tablet, music players, camera etc. They will no longer need to carry several charges for each of these devices.
