3.0 out of 5 stars Kindle Power Adapter, March 18, 2008

By	Bradley G. Leon - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Pros -
Charges the Kindle quickly (although this is more a property of the Kindle itself)
It's white - this helps to differentiate it from the brazillions of other charging devices cluttering my life.

Cons -
Metal pin is fragile - don't put too much force on the connection pin to the Kindle. It's easy to snap off and not as easy to repair. Hence - me writing this review of a replacement charger in the first place...

Summary -
It's a no frills charger, and it does ithe job well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well made, low profile, February 24, 2008

By	S. Breeden "Sue" (Columbus, OH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Kindle Power Adapter works just as it should, charges the unit without a problem. I appreciate the way they positioned the prongs on the unit, so it works sideways giving it a low profile and allowing me to plug in to an extension cord or a regular outlet that may already have a few 'fat' adapter on it. This is a space-saver , especially if one has many gadgets.

4.0 out of 5 stars Kindle Original AC Adapter, April 15, 2008

By	Weatherman (Northeast, Pennsylvania, USA) - See all my reviews

Myself you can't go wrong with ordering the original adapter for the Kindle. Yes, there are others out on the market, but for a home AC adapter, this is what I think is best. It's the one that Amazon makes, has a long cord and you know you're getting the right product. Yes, they were on backorder but now they're in. I ordered an two extra to keep on hand for those "just in case" scenes.
