I have Bluetooth connected for calls/SMS and use the iPod cable in the centre console for charging and music playback. Although charging isn't lightning fast, it definitely charges. I'd say it would increase by about 20% over a 25 minute drive, that's what I've noticed over my general work - home route.
As for the glovebox USB port, I've got another cable in there that friends have used to charge their phones, and it works. Not sure why it's not supposed to?
