Some more notes from a quick local discussion:

o Charging with USB means you can use a *standard* USB cable to charge
  it from a computer. How often did you forgot your charger at home
  when traveling?

o It also means you have *one* cable for both, power and data. We
  should simplify stuff, right? ;)
