Is there any dispute that leaving the charger plugged in year round wastes less than ten cents of electricity a year.

This prompt in Maemo comes from a general Nokia policy, and Nokia says that typically two thirds of the energy that goes into a phone during its life is lost in this way. Other companies are doing something about it too.

Will this solve the environmental problems of Planet Earth? Probably not. Is this prompt more useful than useless? Probably yes.
