So .... a cell phone AC charger with a micro usb connection will work?

I had tried a "standard" AC adapter into which you can plug usb cords ... but apparently it isn't the correct configuration for the PRS 650. The error message on the Sony screen said something about it not detecting any power.

Since then I've been looking online for an AC charger made specifically for the 650 ... without success.

If a blackberry [or other cellphone charger] will work for the 650 ... I'll go out and get one today! I like the flexibility of being able to charge with either the computer or good old AC.

Thanks for the info!
