EU Commissioner Wants Standard For Mobile Phone Connectors

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the things-that-will-never-happen dept.

Jantastic writes "European Commissioner Günter Verheugen wants manufacturers of mobile phones to come up with a standard connector for chargers and microphones. If companies fail to do so, proposed legislation should speed up this process. In theory, this could improve competition, while enabling longer life cycles for these devices."
