I can charge nearly every gadget I have through USB(other than the GB SP) for everything else there's USB and I also built myself a mintyboost device to charge on the go.

But Other than charging and needing them when out I don't really notice the gadgets.

My cell phone(N95) constantly losses out with charging since I maybe remember to charge it once per week, my eeepc get's charged the night before I need it generally. The V3 reader get's a topup once every 3 weeks usually(since it lasts so long on a single charge which is good for me), the only device that get's a daily charge is the music player I have be it either a iPod Shuffle 2nd gen(if I need it for audio books) or the Samsung S2 Pebble which I listen to at work the whole day.

Frankly I want devices I can charge maybe once per week but not much more than that. I don't consider plugging things in all the time to be a good use for a gadget. And infact and more and more looking at low-power devices that can do that. Still hard though to find them as everything seems to come with crap batteries or is just overengineered.
