Almost all manufacturers have standardized on micro USB, like the N900 uses, for chargers. HTC, Nokia, Motorola - even Apple. So as older phones using non-standard chargers are gradually replaced, this will become mostly a moot argument.

Anyway...stupidphone?? Not hardly, more like smartphone for the masses. Simple and ruggedly built. No pocket computer a-la N900, but not intended to be.
