Clark's HLN producer Scott is a bona fide Blackberry addict. When his Blackberry started running out of power the other day, he had to scramble to look for a compatible charger. He found someone who had just switched over from the Blackberry to an iPhone, but she still had her old charger on her desk.

Fortunately, Scott's crazed search for a compatible charger may soon be a thing of the past. Some of the cell phone industry's major players have agreed to standardize chargers by 2012, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Approximately 50 million chargers end up in landfills each year as people change phones and have to get rid of their old equipment. So that's a massive reduction in e-waste just around the corner!

Meanwhile, a single cell phone charge may soon last for up to two weeks thanks to new processor technology and new display screen technology. That's great news to someone like Christa who travels with two batteries because she uses her smart phone so heavily!
