Talking Kindle 1 questions
Hello,
I just got a Kindle 1st Generation a couple days ago. Why? Because I can! Seriously... How could they sell enough of these beasts for there to be a second generation? It's like the whole thing was designed by committee.

I've got a couple questions for the old timers who remember something about these things.
1) There is a separate power adapter which plugs into one of those round connectors. There is a power light that shines amber when the power is plugged in, but it never seems to change colors. IS there an indicator that shows when the battery is fully charged?

2) I just hooked it up to my USB cable for the first time today and the power light came on. Does it also charge from USB like the newer ones? That would mean I don't really need the power adapter.

Thanks,
Andy
