Every so often you get to play with a device you haven't used before and suddenly wonder how you ever got by before you had one. The QuadCharge from
Gomadic is such a creature and after our extended play date with it -- by play, of course we mean left in place charging stuff -- we can't live without. Click on through the continue link for our thoughts and more pics.

Anybody with a few handsets kicking about -- or iPods, PSPs and such -- realizes the hassle of plugging all your kit in when charging times comes. Gomadic has answered the call of the
charging challenged with a pretty ingenious solution, the QuadCharge. Featuring four spots to plug in your precious friends, and it'll accept almost any device you can dream up. The magic lies in Gomadic's power system which will work using 100-250 volts - or just about anywhere -- and outputs at 5.0 volts DC, with any other adjustment being made by the tip itself. We've not counting just how many tips are available, but it must be in the hundreds.
We managed to stuff an iPhone, aging
O2 Xda Trion,
Sony Ericsson Z710i, and BlackBerry onto the padded stand with no space issues. Devices charged in typical fashion, but without the clutter 4 devices, cables, and extension cables would normally cause. All the cables can be pulled out to adjust for the charging ports or various devices and the single cable that goes to the wall outlet is also adjustable.
This picture demonstrates one of the things we loved most about the space saving, clutter removing platform, all that charging accomplished and the outlet still had a spare plug. The QuadCharge comes with a lifetime warranty and will only wring your wallet for $49.95 and TipExchange tips for whatever you need to charge will run you $5.95 each. There has never been a better gift for the gadget inclined.
