Being able to power the RPi off USB is, unexpectedly, one of my favorite features. Wall warts just plain suck. You won't be able run 6w off USB 3.0 for a while yet.

It's unfortunate to not be able to power other things off of the Raspberry Pi's USB though. Like a WiFi USB dongle.

But we knew we were in for the ride when we bought rPi's.
