AC adaptor solutions?

A rack full of Couriers == a pile of AC adaptors.
Has anybody found a good solution to plugging in
32 or more modem AC adaptors? Using conventional
AC outlet strips usually wastes one outlet per
transformer. I'm looking for something cheaper
than the specialized rack mount power supplies
that would replace the AC adaptors entirely.

A related question. Couriers have a reputation
for generating a lot of heat. How much of that
heat comes off the AC adaptor as opposed to the
Courier itself?
