First Claim
1. A universal organizing and charging station apparatus for organizing and charging electronic devices, comprising:
- a bottom surface plane which is substantially horizontal running from front to back and side to side, with a bottom surface depth thereof as measured from front to back;
a substantially vertical rear surface;
a top surface which is substantially horizontal running from front to back and side to side, with a top surface depth thereof as measured from front to back, wherein said top surface depth is smaller than said bottom surface depth;
a slanted front surface connecting a front of said bottom surface with a front of said top surface, wherein said front surface is so-slanted because said top surface depth is smaller than said bottom surface depth and said rear surface is substantially vertical;
left and right side surface planes;
said rear, top and front surfaces, and said bottom and left and right side surface planes, defining an interior of said station;
a plurality of charging cable slots originating on said rear surface, running vertically up said rear surface, continuing over said top surface from back to front, continuing down at least part of said slanted front surface, and terminating on said slanted front surface, for sliding an electrical connector wire of said charging cable therethrough;
a plurality of charger head apertures, one associated with each said slot, disposed upon said rear surface in continuous connection with the associated slot, for threading a charging head therethrough; and
an interior access opening between an exterior and said interior of said station, for setting up a wiring configuration of said station.

14. A method for organizing and charging electronic devices using a universal organizing and charging station, comprising,
a) setting up a wiring configuration of said station for use via an interior access opening between an exterior and an interior of said station, by: -
providing a power aggregation device situated in said interior, said interior defined by rear, top and front surfaces of said station, and by bottom, left and right side surface planes of said station; connecting said power aggregation device to a power source; plugging a plug section of a charging cable into a power outlet of said power aggregation device; moving a charging head of said charging cable into said interior of said station; and threading said charging head through a charger head aperture situated on said rear surface of said station, from said interior to an exterior of said station; and b) using said station by; if the electronic device associated with said charging cable is to be charged on said top surface, sliding an electrical connector wire of said charging cable through a charging cable slot of said station from said rear to said top surface of said station; if the electronic device associated with said charging cable is to be charged on said front surface, sliding said electrical connector wire through said charging cable slot from said rear to said top surface of said station, and further to said front surface of said station; providing charging power to said electronic device by plugging said charging head into the electronic device associated with said charging cable; if the electronic device associated with said charging cable is to be charged on said top surface, resting said electronic device on said top surface; and if the electronic device associated with said charging cable is to be charged on said front surface, resting said electronic device on said front surface;
wherein;said bottom surface plane is substantially horizontal running from front to back and side to side, with a bottom surface depth thereof as measured from front to back; said rear surface is substantially vertical; said top surface is substantially horizontal running from front to back and side to side, with a top surface depth thereof as measured from front to back, wherein said top surface depth is smaller than said bottom surface depth; said front surface is slanted, connecting a front of said bottom surface with a front of said top surface, wherein said front surface is so-slanted because said top surface depth is smaller than said bottom surface depth and said rear surface is substantially vertical;
wherein;said station comprises a plurality of said charging cable slots, each said slot originating on said rear surface, running vertically up said rear surface, continuing over said top surface from back to front, continuing down at least part of said slanted front surface, and terminating on said slanted front surface; and said station further comprises a plurality of said charger head apertures, one associated with each said slot, disposed upon said rear surface in continuous connection with the associated slot. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
