Nowadays, there's a lot of adapters that will allow you to plug any USB device onto the wall. I have found that it solves a lot of my charging cables problems and have lightened my load. Of course, I'm not a road warrior. I think that if you can get the cables down that you have conquered half the battle.

I’ll be taking a whole bunch of stuff like this on vacation in a few weeks. Luckily I have a great new bag to put it all in, but as Judie’s getting one too, I’ll let her fill you in on all the details!

I try to have cables that will charge most things off the usb port of my laptop which cut's down on the items quite a bit, but I also only bring my laptop, phone, ipod and Iliad with me. Hoping to combine phone and ipod once the iphone does wireless exchange syncing. In regards to Atlanta, I live here, and it's actually every second street named Peachtree :grin: You need help :smile: I’ve found that managing the chargers is one of the most crucial pieces.

I normally would not pack a FreeAgent 500 GB external drive, or the Altec Lansing inMotion iPod player. Probably could have passed on carrying the second phone pictured - the Blackjack. I rotate between four different bags just like my wife who changes purses... wait what did I just say? :roll: Bill, you are absolutely spot on with the cable management! I just found out that I will be issued a wireless card, laptop (not a Mac) but maybe a tablet and a Blackberry for my new job at a very large telecommunications company. Another set of gear from 8 to 5! :shock: Hi Judie,
