Another Way to Pack Lighter

Everything is Design has this brilliant travel tip. If you have a cell phone, such as the Motorola RAZR, that has a charger with the 4 pin USB connector (common for connecting digital cameras to computers), you can use this same connector instead of bringing your charger along too! This way it simply charges off of the laptop. Of course, this is assuming you are bringing your laptop with you. We do, as it doubles as our DVD player.

Do you have any tried and true travel tips to share?

  • The only caveat I would add is that I have not for whatever reason been able to get this to work with my IBM T42 laptop, which I also haul around with my Powerbook. It seems the charging while connected only works on the Powerbook. . . .=(

  • Okay. The clarification for this is that you need to install drivers for the phone that allow the PC laptop to recognize the phone, only then it will charge. Hah. “I’m a PC.” “And I’m a Mac.”
