Regarding charging through USB. All the USB port provides is 5VDC to charge up or power up any device connected to it. There are many chargers that have a USB socket for you to plug your device into to provide that 5VDC. Walmart or Zellers have these gizmos and well, you plug it into the wall, use whatever cable adapter you need to go to your device, and voila, you are in business. Also, there are devices that plug into your car's cigarette lighter and have a USB socket. I use one for my Creative TXFM to use the car's power as a power source. Works like a champ. Hope it helps you out. Mike K.
