Playbook rapid charger stand problems?
I bought one from crackberry a couple of months ago and already it has stopped working. The lightning bolt comes on but the playbook receives no charge. Anyone else ever have similar problems? Know if it is the charger or the device?
I pre-ordered this device and have one of the original models with the recessed power button (although am on on my fourth charger :( ) so it is almost two years old - maybe it is simply wearing out.
Hopefully f BB10 phones are a hit a new generation of playbooks comes out fast otherwise I may need to move on to an Android tablet.

for mine it worked perfectly out of the box for a few months. then it started acting a little like yours. mine still works great, but what I do each time is after I put it on the stand I move it side to side until both the lightning bolt is on and the backlight changes a little. the backlight will either get brighter or dimmer depending on how bright you have it normally.
doing this has not let me down for a long time. what you can also do to take it the next step is to get battery guru from appworld and have it up while charging. it won't take more than a min to tell if its really charging as you will see the line go up on the chart. once it is charging you can close the program or leave it up and walk away.
hope this helps!
