Basically, it’s USB socket on the phone, which could be connected to wall charger, which, in turn, could have different sockets for different countries.

So if I’m stuck with the phone somewhere it’s easy to find a standard USB cable (from digital camera, card reader, etc) and any computer with USB port. The only one thing – you have to install driver (or small program under linux) which would change USB voltage to 500mv for charging it.

It would be great if all phones would have the same clever design.
