Two faceplates are provided - a power plug faceplate and a second faceplate for USB devices. That's right boys and girls, you can use this adapter to charge your iPod, mobile phone, etc. via USB cable as well as plug your multi-voltage laptop power supply into that funky 60's era Soviet wall plug.

I never travel for business but I have an international trip coming up where I'd like to take my laptop and Blackberry.
Can anyone assist with a few follow-up questions:
So, this is an anywhere plug adapter for my Dell AC to DC converter (100-240V and 50-60Hz AC input) that allows me to power and charge my laptop just about anywhere in the world?
Would this also be compatible with the empower jacks on UA?
What about the USB connection - can I just connect my Blackberry into the adapter rather than powering up my laptop first and then connecting the Blackberry to it?
It also seems I need to order this online...I checked Best Buy and they don't seem to carry...any ideas on where to find this at a store?
Many thanks!!
