It charged my Storm 2 just fine, but it will not work with my new bold. What am I missing? Do I have to by a new charger just for the 9930? I like the convenience of the dual charger.
As always any help is appreciated.

Reason: I got made fun of for the title of the thread so I changed it.
having the same problem, I do get a message on my 9930 saying that the charger is not providing enough power to charge the battery, I will buy one for the playbook just to make sure it works since the playbook requieres more power output than regular bb phones!
Same problem here. I have both an "iluv" and "powerjolt for Ipad" charger. Neither worked with the 9930 but they all worked with my Storm and other devices. It's not an amperage issue. The powerjolt was made for the Ipad and puts out 2.1amps. It's not a cable issue either. I used both the BB original Cable and the Griffin cable.
Initially when i plugged the 9930 in, it would not go into bedside mode. Then i revved the engine and it would go into bedside mode but there was no powerbolt next to the battery and it did not charge for 20 minutes while driving.
I ended up going to Verizon wireless and buying their ripoff $29.99 charger. That worked.
