Here is yet another one that actually makes you give up a 120V outlet
for 2 USBs.

I would think a much better idea would be to design table lamps with a
couple of outlets in the base.


Been to any (decent) hotels lately? It's fairly common to have lamps
with AC receptacles and USB ports.

e.g. Courtyard By Marriott

I think they could add an mp3 player to your microwave for music in
the kitchen and another two places to charge your phone for a couple
of bucks.


For the amount that they would have to increase the price of the microwave
produce anything close to decent sound, I'd buy a dedicated "music source"
such as CD/Radio/Bluetooth device that hangs from the bottom of the upper
cabinets.

In fact, I did.
