Foldable design for UK 3-pin plug
I think this is a brilliant idea. See full story and movie on the Register.
These UK 3-pin plugs are the bane of my existence when trying to pack my laptop, power brick and plug into a laptop case. Hope this prototype gets fully developed by the designer Min Kyo Choi, who has essentially rewired a traditional UK 3-pin plug measuring roughly 48 x 44 x 46mm into a flat-pack design that’s just 48 x 44 x 10mm.

When are we going to see these in the marketplace? Why is it that good ideas so often vanish?
