I bought an extra cable for my Kindle so I can keep it at the office for moving content. I love the white color. Amazon learned something nice from Apple. I love that the Kindle and all the accessories are white. Clean & modern. Very chic ! Does the job. Reasonable price too.

Nice product to have if you don’t have service in your area, just plug in,buy books , and it downloads them from your home computer

When a good friend gave me her Kindle Ebook reader to take to the hospital for my kidney transplant, I was overjoyed, as I had wanted a Kindle ever since they came out. However, I wanted to load books not found on the Kindle site, and the cord had been lost. Thus, this USB cable allows me to download books from other Ebook sites, and in French, and transfer them to my Kindle. I wouldn’t be without this cable for my Kindle!

It is like original (poorly designed) supplied cable but it should have a better method of winding itself up for storage. This and the power cord BOTH need a much better method to wind themselves up for storage. Amazon did not do us travelers any favors, by not have these two cords be better traveling companions. It would be very slick if they got redesigned to wind up for storage and had the ends overlap each other to make a very tidy and compact unit. Since this cord has generic ends, I suggest that you look elsewhere for a self winding USB cable.

My dogs managed to eat my USB cable and the wonderful folks at Kindle support sent one overnight at no charge.This is what I call great service and a great product from a great retailer!
