You can't swap batteries in an iPhone either, but you can still carry a "spare"; it just acts as a charger.

You won't have this option with the 17" MBP though coz Apple doesn't license the Magsafe connector. It's the same reason you don't find 3rd party adaptors connecting via Magsafe.

There's a product that acts as an external battery for the iphone (my brother has one - can't think of the name) Bulkier when in use - but less extra to carry around than a spare...
