do you have a micro usb cable? You don’t need this charger,
this is a perfectly good charger, but if you already have a cell phone charger that uses micro USB- you’re wasting your money. I have a new blackberry curve, my wife a droid. Both cell phone chargers charge the kindle no problem.

|Amazon’s Kindle Service,
So, I thought I would share my experience here with getting one of these replaced. The Kindle DX comes with a limited 1-year warranty. The USB/Power cable that comes with it disintegrated after about 1.5 years. Amazon is quite gracious, though, and they are willing to replace the cable for free. But they are not willing to pay shipping on the replacement, because it is after the warranty. Shipping is $6.98, so if you are looking to replace the cable, that is the end cost. It is also not clear what happens if, in another 1.5 years, this cable wears out. Probably if that happens I will forego the cute, matching, unreliable cable for a plain black one that doesn’t cost so much to replace all the time.
The long and the short of it is that a $489 device comes with a cable that doesn’t last, but that Amazon is somewhat nice in replacing it.
On the other hand, customer service was very nice, and promptly solved my problem, so kudos, guys! I wish you all the best.

|Charges Kindle and iPhone 3G!?,
I lost my original wall charger and USB adapter while reading on my Kindle during a bus ride. The new one came in quickly before my Kindle lost even a bit of charge. I have found that the wall charger also works with the iPhone 3G USB adapter, giving me an apparent full charge. The voltage is about the same and mAH is lower, so charging does take longer. However, that is one less charger to lose and one more USB space on my laptop. This charger has lasted longer than even the “green” charger I bought from AT&T. Which did not get beyond a week.
