The Sony cable is irrelevant... PRS300/600 readers either charge by USB when connected to a computer (not asleep or hibernating) or by barrel connector to use an external wall charger. Using a USB based wall charger will discharge it... that's why you've got both sockets... also using the barrel connector means you can still read whilst charging
