Where do I find plugs which reduce amperage when tv left on standby?

just watched a rerun of Dragons Den. An invention of a plug which reduced the amperage used when tv is left on standby (not the plug that automatically switches the standby off) was demonstrated. Is this product on the market yet and if so where can I buy it?

Doesn't seem very practical to me and would even be redundent. When a device goes into standby, it only draws enough current to operate the memory backup for such things as programed presets. If that current was some how clamped to a lesser value, the backup function would ceise to operate.
