I also found what seems like a great product called the smart power strip. It supposidly powers the entire strip on or off based on turning one component of the strip on. So, you plug your tv into the control plug, and when the tv comes on then power can go to everything else. Otherwise, there isn't any juice going to them at all. Sounds like a great idea. I just wonder if that makes the tv/vcr loose the chanel programming? Kill-a-watt would see weather its worth it to plug in just that one appliance to retain the memory I guess.

I've got those in boxes in my home. Hopefully some day (within the next month) they'll actually be used.
