My USB charger in the car is also 500ma and it simply can't keep up with the draw when using the sprint navigation program while driving. It's not a crazy drain, but after 90 minutes of gps use, I'd lost about 20% of my battery even though it was plugged in to the 500ma charger. I see there are 1000ma usb chargers that can work with a car outlet. Has anyone tried one of these? Is it safe to assume that the touch pro can charge faster with a 1000ma charger? Or am I being a naughty monkey for using that 1000ma charger with the touch pro in the first place?

I'm an Architect so I don't know much about electronics so any help is greatly appreciated.

See ya.
If you use GPS, BT and 3G the needed current will exceed 1000mA.

I'm using the HTC 2000mA car charger HDC 02. It will do for all your mobile needs. Use Google to find or this link (very cheap?!) http://www.netimes.com/shop/htc-dopo...-c-80_422.html
