GSM World, the monster cell phone meeting is going on in Barcelona right now.
In a shocking development, the 17 top mobile phone manufacturers (not including Apple) have agreed to have a universal charger for all phones produced after January 1, 2012. The group is citing environmental reasons for the shift but sheer convenience also makes it a big winner for consumers.
Apple better get involved in a hurry, although I'm sure they have their reasons for resisting, one of which is probably the profitability of proprietary accessories.
