Favorite iPhone/iPad cord management?
My partner asked me to look for some type of contraption to help him manage his cables by the bed.... he is tired of cables falling....
Anyone have any favorites? He has an iPhone 5 and iPad 2 and a few other miscellaneous things he charges.

I used to use a couple of strips of Velcro but as of late have migrated to something similar to this:

I use the cord buddy for home and office. There is no on/off switch for the motion sensor light so you can leave the batteries out or put something in front of the sensor.

How many devices? Bedside, I just use http://www.amazon.com/Command-Small-...rd+clips+small I stick these to the backside of the night stand.. If you need something for more devices, I actually also have this:

The Anker charging station is a central charging station for ipads and iphones in the living room.

I have several OXO Good Grip cord holders. I like the design, and they work well. Very heavy. http://www.amazon.com/OXO-Grips-Catc...C+Satin+Chrome
HOWEVER, the iphone 5 lightning charging cord is not big enough to be caught by the opening of this holder - so i will work for the ipad 2, but not iphone 5. I haven't found a solution I like for my iphones yet, so they just fall....

I use these Quirky's and love them. They are a weighed so they stay in place. But if you have short cables then they will move if you pull the cable. Some double stick tape or velcro does the trick.

Excellent thread guys.
I have an iPhone, Nook, Kindle, WindowsPhone, Android, BlackBerry and a Chromebook.
That Anker 5 device charging station looks like just the ticket for me. I'm sick and tired of cords all over the place by the bed. I've got to start tidying up! Plus, I'm a fan of Anker. They make high quality products for sure. Plus, it looks like that five port USB module is the same as their travel USB 5 port in case you need to take it with you on trips.
Just ordered one.
Thanks for the thread.
