    Ok i have my sony ericsson phone cradle/charger but i was getting fed up of just having the one charger-- and having to leave it in the cradle-- so what do i do?? why i hot wire it inside so that it is powered from the usb!!! 450mA and 5V which is perfect... also it works brilliant :) only took 5 mins and looks exactly the same as an unmodded cradle out of the box :)

    Cool, I was thinking I might have to try that when my data cradle arrives in a few days as I'm not sure if it is a charger too...
