Ok, I was on a powerbook and used the USB cable that works with my blackberry 7100 and card reader.

The BB wall charger will not power the Razr.
The BB wall charger with US plug will not charge the BB but works fine with UK plug and convertor.

The BB US car/wall charger works fine with the BB in car and in wall. It will not charge the RAZR in the car, nor via wall but strangely enough will keep it powered up!? Unplug and dead RAZR dies again.

I spent three days chasing a charger for my Razr in Anaheim. Eventually a friend with another motorola phone arrived and I used her charger. Next day I managed to actually get my own US charger for it.

I was so desperate I started contemplating getting a new phone. Finding a charger proved to be more difficult.
