Usually the wall, since the USB methood charge is a little slower.

+1, sort of.

Always the wall because the USB IS slower.
Only on the go, would I use a USB slot as 99.999% of the time I'd have my wall charger with me. Not anymore difficult to carry with as a USB chord is.

I voted for USB to computer charge because I rarely charge from an outlet these past months.

I have a dock at home and at work for my iPhone. And I also have a USB connection in my car that charges it as it plays. Works pretty slick in that I'm never away from a charger for more than a few hours at a time.

Two iPhone docks; one connected to the PC for charging/syncing and the other connected to a wall socket next to my bed for overnight charging.

I voted Other. This concept of "charging" your phone is nothing but a bunch of environmentalist propaganda. I just replace the battery each time and throw the spent one in the trash.
