Thanks!
It comes with a charger that only plugs into the wall. If you want to plug into your pc or laptop you will need to buy a usb 2.0 cable with a MICRO end on it, not a usb mini. Yes, there is a difference. For me that difference was that I have 10 usb mini cables lying around from cameras and cell phones I no longer use and not one MICRo cable to be found so I had to go to my local "The Source" store and pay $24.99 for a blackberry micro usb cable. I am quite sure they can be found for much cheaper but you can't be adhd without impulsive spending, now can you?

On the plus side, while I was there I also purchased a Gnarlyfish "Aquisition Portfolio" for 7" tablets for $24.99 as well. A nice little book style cover that contorts itself into a stand that props your arc up for the hands-free reading necessary when munching goopy chicken wings or pizza.
