   I should be able to charge my phone over PoE from my laptop. I don't know why it would have this feature, but it should

     I wonder how many amps you can pull from an expresscard slot?

     basically I want to be able to charge my phone from my laptop.
     but my laptop's USB ports give so little juice that it basically never can charge my phone

     and I don't think I can pull more than an amp or so from any of: mini DP, VGA, or 3.5mm audio.

     so that leaves the ethernet and the expresscard

     neither of which realistically can push any power. this ethernet doesn't even have PoE support (although it SHOULD), and the expresscard probably is like PCMCIA, where it barely has any power

     it looks like the max current from an expresscard is 1.3 amps at 3.3v, or a miserable 4.3 watts.

     I'm from the past so I'm offended by 3.3v interfaces.

     I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we end up moving to USB 5 which ironically has no 5v

     SAVE 5V INTERFACES!
