This page about half way down there is a guide for modding a standard USB cable to fool the N900 into charging from it. Pretty basic stuff if you have a soldering iron and a pair of wire cutters. Essentially the same as the OP but in cable form. You can buy like 10 min to micro adapter cables for 3 bucks from amazon and mod them keeping one everywhere you go, USB to micro USB cables are everywhere nowdays so I chose that as my option.
