I love the N3DS USB charger

I love the N3DS USB charger. Got this for my 'new' 3DS as it didn't come with its own charger. And I didn't sell my original 3DS. No problem, plugs into a USB adapter/socket or directly into a PC. Loads fine. In addition, there were no problems with loading while playing. Except when you plug it into a charger (for original 3ds) and try to play with the stand. But it's a bit cumbersome and not sure anyone would want to leave it in their cradle and play. I tried to do this somewhat randomly. Left my original 3ds in Cardle and opened the screen. The red light started blinking slowly. As soon as you connect the charger directly to the PDA and not to the charging station, the blinking stops. I thought I'd mention it. For me personally this is not a problem. UPDATE: It's been about a year since I bought it and I've noticed the protective black plastic around the wires on the top and bottom of the charger is falling apart. Not the worst that could have happened as it still works, but I'm deducting a star for this issue as I'm afraid it might not last another year or so. Also, I don't twist the cable like some people like to do with their electronics, so I'm not entirely sure how it can come apart other than with normal use (plugging and unplugging).
