Maybe the battery given up.



Indeed I can't even see the charging light. I plug the reader in and see what happens.

But basically what you are saying is that the reader can't run off mains and when the battery is gone the reader is a goner as well. Most mobile phones are the same. The don't run of mains as well and they need there batteries changed 5% before you can do anything useful.

PS: and the PRS650 isn't available here yet as well. dam it.
Yes it can! but you must use a PSP type round barrel charger, (or cheap generic of), & with that it should work even if the battery is totally kaput.

A USB mains charger will not work, only when it has a computer attached & it can take up to an hour for the red light to appear.
