Get the strip outlet like I have. It has three rows, the one in the middle is fixed and the two outer rows swivel like this one. All independantly. I have never not been able to plug something in.
It is. I seem to recall that it was a bit on the expensive side... I think the brand might be Monster. Most if their stuff is overpriced nonsense for the technologically illiterate, but this thing is worth every penny.
See above... mine is from Belkin and is better than this one. Should be available from most of the medium and big box retailers.
If you are overseas, try Amazon. I would assume that there are 220v socket versions.
