Your system sounds fiendishly complicated. From what you're describing, you get on the train/plane with 1) your music source 2) whatever power/charging device you carry for your music source 3) your PIMETA 4) your special wallwart for charging your PIMETA 5) your computer and whatever power you carry for your computer
What I'm talking about is reducing this to:
1) Your music source
2) a pocket-sized or PIMETA-sized amp
3) your computer and whatever wallwart you carry for your computer
The computer wart provides the right voltage for charging both your amp and your music source (which probably charges from your USB cable, as most do nowadays). Also, in this scenario, you can charge your IPod (or whatever) off your amp. That's another huge benefit of li-poly technology -- it carries enough juice to charge an IPod a couple times during a typical listening day. (Thus saving us those 9V battery gizmos that top it up).
