As far as I can tell, this device won't charge from a USB port that's not attached to a computer. Others claim that it works, but maybe that's just the 500?
This is fairly normal. Just because a connector fits doesn't mean that it will work. In particular devices that use USB may have special logic in them to sense when they are hooked to a computer and when they are hooked to a charger. There are no standards for the logic hardware and thus these kinds of semi-smart chargers will not work on anybody else's unit and a unit that requires semi-smart chargers are likely only to accept their own.
