This won an Innovations award at CES.  Great idea for a simple problem...wall warts taking up too much space, wasted receptacles, etc.

I agree... it is a great idea.  I always lose an outlet or two on a typical powerstrip.

That's pretty cool!  I wonder what the price will be?  I'd love to have one for my PC stuff.

The black version with 5 outlets is $12.99 from most places. Do a search on Froogle for PowerSquid and it returns quite a few choices.

Gotta love cheap. Hell, you can even buy them at Bed Bath & Beyond.

Say honey, would you mind picking me up a new PowerSquid while you're getting the new sheets...  :lol:
