Hi,

Came home today and my Kindle's charger was broken. No one seems to know what happened. The receptacle in the kindle has been pushed all the way in and I can't charge my Kindle.

Amazon has been great and is shipping me a new one, but it will be about 4 weeks. They suggested I trickle charge with the USB. Will that work? When you look up the USB cable on Amazon it says it can't be used to charge.

Also, what about buying a USB charger? Will that charge faster than a trickle charge?

Thanks!!
