Lowtech $6 solution for smartphone charging problem
Great design deserves to be recognized.
I found the Bobino Driinn phone holder in the giftshop at the Post & Tele Museum in Copenhagen and fell in love with the simplicity of this piece of rubber and plastic.
A picture of it in use in my hotel room (the day I bought it) is below.
I also wrote a review in Frequent Business Traveler with a somewhat more detailed explanation.

No, it cleans obscene ubsolcited SMS that come during the night.
I think bot the solutions are for people who are extremely organised. If I can't place my cell phone on an bedside table, a dresser or a desk, I place a magazine on the floor and place my cellphone on it.

There is a no-skid pad for starters (on the folding model) plus most outlets are somewhat close to the floor. I see the value in this as keeping the device off the floor, where it is far more likely to be stepped on.
