Wired Out!

I just got back from a weekend in Beirut-fun fun fun-and while packing I realised how much I carry with me. I don't mean cloths-that I know I carry a lot of...but gadgets! I have noticed that even though things have been getting smaller-mobiles, ipods, cameras-and we all go out and try to get the smallest the latest in gadgets...one thing that does not seem to get smaller or shorter...are the wires that come with them.
I was packing my suitcase, and as I was taking my, camera, phone and nano with me, I had to make sure that I had the chargers also...how awful to travel and realise you forgot the charger for one of these...and be stuck without a camera when a Kodak moment arises (and these moments always come when your digital has run out of battery)!
So I am packing, and I saw how big and annoying these chargers are, I mean look at the Nano, its TINY...but the charger is double its size...why? Then the phone...cute and small fits in my back pocket-always seem to loose it in my big hangbag-yet the charger could not possibly be lost since it is bulky! Then the worse is the camera one, my camera is quite swanky-ha-and I love it...takes great pictures...makes anyone and anyplace look brilliant...but the charger and the STUPID base that comes with it...is just fucking annoying.
But I love gadgets, and I guess the consequence of that is that I have to carry chargers...would make more sense to make one charger that works for all your little gadgets...ma3gool no one has thought of that yet???
