Can I use my Blackberry charger on my Eris?

[medelste]

Can I use my Blackberry charger on my Eris? My chargers are next to each other and I accidentally plugged it in the other day. It fit and the Eris's battery indicator showed that it was charging. I immediately unplugged it for fear of doing it harm. Are they compatible from a power perspective?

The feds have passed a ruling that all phone chargers be compatable.
Not sure when it goes into effect, or if it helps now.
But I see no reason that it would harm the eris. The diff manufacters have been conning us, its just a marketing ploy to get us to buy thier brand
and rip off the comsumer.
