This is a question B3TA fixes the world

Moon Monkey says: Turn into Jeremy Clarkson for a moment, and tell us about the things that are so obviously wrong with the world, and how they should be fixed. Extra points for ludicrous over-simplification, blatant mis-representation, and humourous knob-gags.

Pretty much all mobile phones charge from usb these days, including Apple's iPhones... The wall-wart just has a USB A female socket. So it's just the cable that's different.

In fact every iOS device and Android phone I've got uses this configuration. I think the phone side of things is "almost there". There's no reason for it not to be to be, they will save cash in doing so as they can ship without a charger.

They even have them in plug sockets now:
