In UK dosh it would have been something like £8 (about $12 Aussie). They also had 1.8, 3 and 5 (!) metre USB cables available separately.
I've got a few things now that charge via USB -- mobile phone, MP3 player, eBook -- and this means I can take the one plug with me and charge 'em all. No computer needed!

Great, Bran. Thanks for the tip. I'm in my local town tomorrow, and I'll check out the electronics stores there.
