Good news for cellphone users in the EU–an agreement between Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Apple, LG, NEC, Qualcomm, Research in Motion, Samsung, and Texas Instruments has been reached, making micro-USB the phone charger standard. The agreement will affect phones sold in Europe by those companies, beginning next year.
