Hey, I got one more thing! Turns out the reviewed unit even comes with an on/off switch directly at the cigarette adapter. What a nice idea!

If you have a local poundland pound shop, they do 4 way cig adapters, and USB cig adaptors, so for £2 you would have all this and more.

The 4 ways are yellow, so a bit less attractive though.

Halfords have a new Japanese accessory section where for £5-99 (better quality than poundland) you can get two separate single cig adaptors, on enough lead to go half way round the car, both singles are attached to the one male plug-in so you can split in different directions.

Dont know about your car, but who wants one of those multi socket monsters on or near the dashboard, each single socket is easy to hide under the dash behind the wiring.

garyparson: Does the usb port drop the voltage down so it can plug straight into a GPS receiver to charge the battery Question

This looks like a nifty device. Trouble is, the carriage is twice the cost of the item itself, making it $32 instead of £10. Any word on a UK supplier?

Sorry - I should have looked at the forum and all the replies before I posted. I see now that there are some UK alternatives - thanks!

but the last reply was in March 2007. How strange.

Edited, sorry I forgot to say when I clicked on the link in the email it said the topic didn't exist. I found it on a search.

Edit: Just clicked on the stop watching link and the topic opened
