Years ago (about 40) a lunch lady taught me to use a coffee spoon to peel hardboiled eggs. You use the bowl of the spoon to crack the large end of the egg (hit it about four or five times). Then, peel off the end of the egg with your fingers and insert the tip of the spoon under the shell and slide it down and twist. The spoon will slip under the shell and you can almost lift the egg out of the shell.

You can also use an egg-poaching pan (http://www.google.com/products/catal...d=0CD4Q8wIwAg#) to poach the eggs. You end up with a whole devilled egg instead of two halves, but they're really easy to do.
