Nice example set for rest of the world. Imagine all the household using one or 2 chargers for entire devices. How much e waste is saved annually. I agree 1 or 2 chargers wont suffice but having a uniform standard across regions will lead to innovation ( one chargers fits all - power rating and voltage etc). Most importantly we dont need to buy chargers everytime we change the devices. It a win win both for consumers, producers, environment
