Get USB electrical outlets without having to change all of your power sockets

Charging your iPhone and other USB based devices is obviously quite the pain. Last week we featured the world’s smallest, and quite possibly smartest, iPhone dock to help you charge your phone. Today, we may have stumbled on a solution that extends beyond the iPhone and iPod touch. RCA has created an electrical socket plug that transforms your basic two socket plug into one socket and two USB plugs.

A number of vendors have outlet systems that bring this kind of functionality directly to your wall, but who has the time and electrical skills to actually upgrade electrical outlets around the house? The RCA WP2UWR USB Wall Plate just plugs directly into the wall. No need to electrocute yourself just to charge your iPhone.

This RCA plug is available on Amazon for $19.99
