The TruePower is just like any regular wall power outlet, except it comes with two USB ports, which can be used to charge any USB chargeable gadgets.
You can hook up your cellphones, digital cameras, PMPs etc directly to the USB ports of this power outlet without the need to use a separate PSU or power adapter.
The TruePower power outlet is still a patent-pending product, will only start shipping early next year provided it manages to get through the final UL approval. You can pre-order the product now but you’ll be charged only when the product starts shipping. Specs at a glance after the jump:
