I plugged the USB cable into my Kindle Keyboard (Kindle 3), connected the power adapter, plugged it into the wall, and it won't charge. Plugged it directly into my computer via USB and it won't connect.
The micro USB port on the Kindle and the cable connector look OK, but the connection on the Kindle end is a bit loose. I can see a bit of the USB cable pin extending from the port on the Kindle.
I've never had this problem before -- just charged the Kindle last week. When I called Kindle tech support, they had no clue, other than to offer to sell me a refurbished Kindle. Mine is six months out of warranty.
Here are images of my Kindle USB port, with and without the cable plugged in:
