ah, just came across another thread asking the same question. However, the basic question isn't really answered there: Why is it that the sony ereader will charge via a computer's USB port, but not via a wall-plug usb transformer? Is there some serial communication happening there such that the prs-600 won't turn on it's charging circuits until it has a USB data conversation or something? anyone have any insight?

thanks!
