I was actually thinking this morning about unplugging my devices, but - of course - the socket is somewhere behind my desk and crawling on the floor to unplug it is not my idea of fun. Too bad that being on the other side of the pond doesn't mean I can use these. Our sockets are still different.JenWed, 20 Feb 2008 13:20:05 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2008/02/20/bye-bye-standby-remote-power-cutoff/#comment-1765893Hahaha I was just about to say that too!EarthwormWed, 20 Feb 2008 13:18:53 -0000http://www.ohgizmo.com/2008/02/20/bye-bye-standby-remote-power-cutoff/#comment-1765892For the US, there's always X-10.<br><br>Does anyone else see the irony in using a device which always draws power to turn off other devices to save power.AnonymousWed, 20 Feb 2008 12:47:59 -0000
