I've used my Nook Colour's Wall-USB charger successfully on the Kindle 3 (it showed full charge afterwards):
INPUT: 120-240V 0.5A
OUTPUT: 5V (-) 1.9A

That said - the Kindle had problems being recognized on my wife's comp. afterwards until a hard shutdown. It could be coincidental and it's just her XP box (I didn't try it on my box and hers is a bit of a frankenstein machine).
