Sounds like you have a short in the cable or the jack where the power plugs in. If you want to test the cable you can use a multimeter and measure the voltage, or check the continuity.
AC Adapter
More of a concern than a gripe, but does anyone else have the AC Travel Adapter that was bundled in with some packages? I left mine on to charge last night and it was making a loud and sporadic humming noise when i plugged it in. The connection is extremely loose which caused sparking if the plug was moved even the tiniest amount.In the end I just unplugged it. I don't think I'll be leaving it un-supervised to charge :s

There's nothing wrong with the actual cable, it's simply the connection between the actual charger plug and the UK adapter is god-awful.
I had this same problem.In the end i stuck some electrical tape around the plug and the uk adapter (between the earth and the 2 power connectors on the adapter, up and around to the top of the power supply and back down and round - if that make sense...) so it is held together solid.
