Seems like cell phone makers don't believe so with their different sizes of
batteries and adaptors for chargers. Every time they come up with a new
line/model they introduce new batteries and chargers even though the voltage
and capacities remain the same as the ones for the older models.
Standardization is good for consumers but manufacturers seem to like to make
things nonstandard to force people to buy new accessories again.
