The first time my kindle battery died, it warned me that the battery was low a bunch of times beforehand with a little popup box. However, it has died twice since then, and both times it has been unexpected. Very annoying if you're in the middle of a book and have to wait 15 minutes for it to charge enough to keep reading!
Anybody else encountered this? I would appreciate any tips.
Cheers!

Thanks for the tip, will give the restate a try!
I haven't been *trying* to run the battery down; it's just that without the warning I don't think of charging it! I loaded it with so many books initially that I don't often connect it to get more.
And your point about the mains is a good one - I had been charging using the USB till my dad pointed out earlier today that the USB could plug into the mains with an iPhone adaptor. Clever me didn't even think of it, and was resenting amazon for not including an adaptor in the box! Ah well.
Thanks again! Will let you know if the redraft solves it.
