I've seen it flicker to green, and then go back to orange without me even unplugging it, so i'm not sure what's going on. I am currently overseas though and i'm not charging on my computer. I've plugged one of those travel adaptors into the power outlet, so that i can plug the amazon one in, and of course the USB into that. Any idea if that's the reason it's taking so long?
Thanks

Funny you mention this because I was thinking about posting something similar.
I have charged my Kindle Touch 4 or 5 times and each time, the light never goes green. I leave the Kindle plugged in over night, the battery charges but the light doesn't go green. I don't know if this means it never charges the last 1 or 2 percent or what. I haven't worried to much about it since the battery still lasts forever when I unplug it.
Now that I think about it...maybe I will try turning the Kindle all the way off and charging it. Will it display a "fully charged" notification on the screen like phones/ipods do when they are shut off? Hmm, I wonder....
EDIT: ooh, my status has changed to groupie.....that sounds weird.
