 Needs a Connector for Charging Spare Batteries April 27, 2008
Although my beloved Kindle holds its charge well, sometimes I discover that I've allowed its battery to lapse when I'm somewhere other than at home.
I now own a spare battery. Problems of the sort I just described are history. But .. to charge the spare it's necessary to remove the Kindle's battery (it has little wires and a miniature connector) and replace it with the uncharged spare. This isn't something one would want to do any more frequently than necessary. If you folks at Kindle read these comments, please consider, on your next rev power adapter, a special connector for charging spare batteries. And while you're at it, how about adding a little pocket on your next rev Kindle cover to hold that battery spare.
The power adapter deserves 5 stars, but I'll withhold that 5th star until the day arrives when I can charge my spare battery without having to remove the back of my Kindle.
Kindle Original AC Adapter April 15, 2008

Myself you can't go wrong with ordering the original adapter for the Kindle. Yes, there are others out on the market, but for a home AC adapter, this is what I think is best. It's the one that Amazon makes, has a long cord and you know you're getting the right product. Yes, they were on backorder but now they're in. I ordered an two extra to keep on hand for those "just in case" scenes.
Nice charger, but there are alternatives April 4, 2008

I like my Kindle AC charger - it's elegant and compact. Unfortunately at the time I needed a spare charger, it was on indeterminate multi-week backorder.
At that time, I went with the iGo Universal Wall (AC) and Auto (DC) Charger with iGo's Kindle Power Tip. That is working well.
The (cheaper) iGo Universal Wall (AC) Charger will also work with the same Kindle Power Tip.
Both of these are larger and less elegant than Amazon's Kindle charger. Now that the Amazon charger is available for immediate ship, these alternatives probably make less sense for normal use. However if you have multiple devices and only want to carry a single charger, the iGo chargers could still be useful.
 WARNING - UNAVAILABLE April 3, 2008

Don't expect to get a new power supply from Amazon. You won't even get a rational response from customer service in response to inquiries/complaints about the lack of availability of necessary peripherals for a $400 device.

Pros -
Charges the Kindle quickly (although this is more a property of the Kindle itself)
It's white - this helps to differentiate it from the brazillions of other charging devices cluttering my life.
Cons -
Metal pin is fragile - don't put too much force on the connection pin to the Kindle. It's easy to snap off and not as easy to repair. Hence - me writing this review of a replacement charger in the first place...
Summary -
It's a no frills charger, and it does ithe job well.
