Outlets three plus USB

Here’s a useful device: the Monster Outlets to Go 300 turns one AC plug into three and provides two USB outlets. It would be cool if you could go USB-USB and charge a laptop without the proprietary power block and cord. That would save weight, but I assume that’s impossible (I checked - it is impossible). At least this adapter would let you charge your laptop and USB devices at the same time, without plugging those devices into the charging laptop. (HT: Scott Carmichael at Gadling)

If you don't need USB there's one VERY similar by Philips. There's a cord so you can put it off to the side, or if you want it wraps around the back an plugs in almost the same way.

Some size and weight specs would be nice from Monster. It looks smaller than a similar Belkin product I have, but would be nice to know for sure.
