This way I am charging batteries all day while I am cycling. My charger is attached via velcro sewn to the rack pack top and glued to the bottom of the charger.

That's kind of how it goes. But the ideas behind the technology last a bit longer.

Don't be believe me, go to whatsshopping.com. Cell phone watches, MP4 watches all of that. Most people take little note to the fact that China, who produces all of these electronics, stays ahead of the game at all times. All of these things mentioned here are obsolete.

A lot of these "old" electronic devices could not be replaced by an iPhone or similar device. I still don't think the quality of the iPhone camera is quite up there with other digital cameras... and the phone is going to be really expensive when traveling abroad, but otherwise it's probably a good option for many people. For my upcoming trip to Europe I am going to be taking my laptop, camera, and GPS. But I won't be bringing any sort of MP3 player, just because it's one more thing to charge up and carry around. hdt, you’re right.
