Actually, if the EU want to standardise something, book sizes would
be a good place to start. Ever tried to pack a variety of books into
a trunk?


How about phone chargers ?


Phone chargers _have_ been standardised for a few years. Well, all
apart from Apple, who are "special".


In which case they aren't standard. The Nokia 5800 I had in 2009 wasn't
standard.


Yes, Nokia were the other manufacturer slow in standardising on micro-
and mini-USB.

But since Nokia are an absolute irrelevance these days...
