Yeah, I've discoverd that the Pre has the worst battery on the planet, so I've actually used this port twice already in emergency situations to get my phone back online. It's like they were made for each other!

I appreciate the feedback. The whole idea of a how-to is to be as helpful as possible. I'm really glad you dig this.

There's no reason that everyone shouldn't have this. Even if you don't plan on using it regularly, just having it available in an emergency is a great idea.

Why does everyone on this forum insist on confessing their love for me every time I do something substantially nerdy?

Because we're all bike nerds here and when one of our own steps up the nerdiness to another level its just not right to let it go unrecognized.
