The difference in transfer between 3 minutes and 1 minute (or 
whatever) is inconsequential and my six thumbs and fumble fingers 
have an easier time with the cable. I've never filled a card, so 
rarely have any reason to remove one.

As for the drain on the batteries, it is easy enough to pop them 
out for a quick charge.

Not recommending this to others, just saying what I do.
