In line switches on fly leads from transformers?

As is the norm for households containing gadget loving dads, plus 4boys, we've got a mess of cables in some areas, mainly related to AV /gaming equipment.Lots of the devices are plugged into trailed gangs of 4 sockets,usually in the most awkward spot to get at. However, I can reachbehind every single device if I want to.Do you know if there are any products out there which offer a smallinline switch to go between, say, a Wii and its transformer to cut thedevice fully off? Same logic would apply to other devices such as DVDplayers, STBs, etc etc. I presume the difficulty might be that everysingle damned device appears to have a different sized end socket forplugging into the device itself (why do they do this!!!).And before anyone asks, switching off the whole gang either at thewall or on itself is not an option for a variety of reasons.Thanks!Matt

And then keep it under a table lamp to charge it!
