How many gadgets do you carry on a trip?

... I also need to leave room for the goodies I purchase in other countries. My US-born wife always gives me a lengthy shopping list when I head in that direction. I often envy the lucky travellers who board the plane with a small and light carry-on.

somewhat of a comprimise, but I often take a light durable cloth or otherwise collapsable duffle bag on long international journies.

Travel out with it collapsed in carry on; on return as checked luggage filled with soft unbreakable stuff (e.g. clothing, clean or otherwise).

Always:

-Mobile phone (old T29s, but it's reliable and small).
-USB charger for ericsson phone.
-Toilet Bag containing:

If I could just work out a way to do wireless power chords ......

yeah, we can do ethernet over Wireless (IEEE802.11), and we can do power over ethernet (IEEE802.1af), so why not combine the two and have power over wireless?

I use my mobile phone as my alarm, works even if the phone is turned off and even if there is no coverage e.g. Japan or Korea.
