Even better, I'll be featuring the powerstrip *and* your post in my IL08 closing keynote on Wednesday :) I bought one based on your recommendation, and was so delighted not to have to unplug my bedside lamp in the hotel just so I could have both cellphone and laptop charging nearby.

The first time I shared it, there was a brief power dip in the building. Lights went out and back on--and the next thing we knew, all three of our laptops were showing low batteries before we realized we'd forgotten to hit the reset button! I was reminded of this posting today when I read another blog post today about the social aspects of cafes with Internet: http://koonjblog.wordpress.com/2008/08/05/breaking-up-the-cafe-listings/ Thought you'd appreciate the musings about the desirability of a separation of cafes by type of visitor.

That's what you want, but you may want to test your strip before sticking it in your bag (or just reset it before you take off for a trip) so you don't do as I did and grandly offer the use of your strip only to have it not work... it resets immediately (a good thing).
