Hi,

I felt bad for neglecting one of my favorite hobbies-- reading, so I went to pull out my Kindle 2 to pick it back up. The little guy needed a charge, so I got out the USB charge cable and to my surprise, it is.... mangled.

I am honestly baffled as to how this happened. There are frayed wires sticking out and whatnot. I had the cable in a drawer, there is a possibility it got stuck in it at some point when I was opening/shutting and that is how it happened, but it is a slim possibility. I suspect vandalism, but that isn't the point of this thread, so...

I was wondering if somebody could help me find a new cable that would work to charge my Kindle 2? A gmarket link would be great! I'm just not sure what to search for. It's like a normal USB on one end, but small on the other. My digital camera has a similar small size, but it's different (I checked).

Thank you very much! I don't want to have to put off my reading for too long.

according to a link off a kindle 2 thread, you need this kind of USB:

a micro-b type

quick gmarket search gives me this guy:
