It'll be fun when people start buying USB-powered cigarette lighters because they've been obsoleted from cars :)

The joke going around is "can you unplug your book, I need to charge my cigarette": the lighter will be obsoleted too in favour of e-cigs. Generally it's better for things not to be on fire.

When gas stations are selling e-cigs, how is that a techie-bubble at all?
