> This is only true for apartment dwellers (for now). People who live in houses typically charge at home. Having stations built in convenient locations means that you can greatly extend your effective range. If I have a car that can drive for 80 miles, then I can only go 40 miles away before reaching bingo 'fuel'. Often, one will leave some buffer. Doesn't matter if you are picking up someone at the airport, grocery shopping or working. If charging stations are everywhere, then you would only need to worry about how far you can go. If said stations were also wireless, then one might not have to stop to charge at all.
