Chargepod Photo1 SmIf you have as many gadgets around the place as we do you'll be sick of the rat's nest of cables that inevitably comes along with them. Until wireless electricity comes out of the science fiction world and into a nearby store, the best you can hope for is to keep things tidy.

The Chargepod from Callpod will do just that. One charger plugs into the wall and up to six devices can be charged at once. The device auto regulates the output to each port so you don't have to worry about blowing anything up, and dinky blue lights tell you what's getting the juice. Using the right adapters you can hook up pretty much any device, from cellphones to iPods to Bluetooth headsets.

The base unit is $50, and the adapters are $10 each, so it's not a cheap solution, but what price a clean desk?
