I started out with a G3 so I never had to wait for my batteries to charge!

The G3 has a charger that plugs into the camera to charge the battery so you can be off and running (within the range of the charger cord, that is) taking pictures right from the get-go.

And when I got my 10D, well, I already had a fully charged battery that I borrowed from the G3 while the 10D battery was charging.

Bad side to all this is that I never learned the virtues of patience!

No need to worry now. I've been in the dog's face, the cat's face and the wife's face.
