New Kindle/Kindle Touch No Adapters?
Am I reading that right? The wall plug-in thingies??? They have the USB cord listed but it looks like you have to buy the adapter for $9.99 I guess that's one way they're cutting the cost.

I have about 7 of them lying around the house but others might want to be aware.

Just wondering, can I just use a generic USB power adaptor (E.g. the ones for mp3 players) with the Kindle?

Yeppers. They're standardized for the most part. You can Google Micro USB for info.

I was wondering why one of the current Special Offers was a Kindle power adapter and USB cable for half off ($10).
