I left my original charger at a hotel while on the road. I bought this so I didn't have to leave my PC on all night to charge my phone. It works for that, but did not come with the adapter that hooks the cord straight to my phone. This cord plugs into the USB cradle that came with my phone. So I have to charge the phone from the cradle (which I could already do with the PC on and the USB cord plugged in, however, now i don't have to leave my PC on and the phone charges much more quickly. But, it would be nice if it would have come with the adpter so I had a way to charge the phone when traveling.
