    Think the samsung phone chargers fit, Ask around see if your mates have one. Note I said think, may not be samsung, but I know one of the brand name phone chargers fit.

    It's a standard micro-USB charger. Your local phone shop will have them.

    Blackberry charger certainly fits 'em, I'm sure others do too.

    Found a USB in the 2 euro shop that would fit it. My Samsung charger cable also fits :)

    Samsung cable fits but... is it safe? I've been using it for a while and nothing ever happened and then a friend of mine saw it and got crazy. He said it was not good for Kindle and blablabla without actually explaining the possible danger. Do you think it could do any harm?

    I use an old Samsung power supply. It has an led on it. When I plug the kindle in the led is red, when its charged it goes green. No problems thus far. Nearly a year later.

    I'm lazy, I just use whatever micro USB cable is closest for my Kindle, Mp3 player and Galaxy Europa. No issues so far. Right now I'm using the Kindle cable to charge my phone. :o
