I purchased the AC Power Adapter, from Amazon, at the time I ordered the Touch.

What is the proper, step-by-step method of charging the battery. Should the Touch be completely Off, (hitting and holding the power button in for at least 30 seconds), or do I charge it while in the "sleep" mode?

I am not charging it from the computer, I am charging it from an AC wall socket, with the separate power adapter on the USB cable that came with the Touch.

Thanks for any help here.
Congratulations. There's no special procedure on the kindle ... plug it in and it will be charged in an hour or so. It's wise not to charge too often, a charge will probably last you several weeks (but maybe not the first couple of weeks when you might be playing around with it a lot more that you normally would).

If you charge it via USB, you can eject the drive on the computer to read while charging.


Cheers,
