Do they make USB wall outlets?

I have a USB device i need to charge via a wall outlet.... I know they make car power plugs w/ USB recepticables (teehee), but do they make wall versions?

The connector on iPod's power supply is firewire.

hmm...do USB chargers vary, or do they just put out 5V 500mA like a computers USB port? Just curious (and I wouldn't want you to fry whatever you're charging).

n/m, just looked at blackberry's charger, 5v, 500mA. Go nuts.

I've seen them before, somewhere. Basically it was a 5V walwart w/ USB output. I think BigLots had one once. Maybe Radio Shack. I'd search ebay or online though, probably a $2 item that they'd charge $10+ for.

Is that kinda what you're looking for?

Try that one instead. Similar to the first, but designed for US outlets (even though it'll do worldwide voltage), seems to have a standard female USB port on it.
