I have several devices apart from my CyBook which are charged using a USB/Cable. I noticed that I can use different chargers but I always have to use the USB cable provided by Bookeen. If I try any other USB cable the CyBook won't charge. I thought those USB cables are normed so I should be able to use any USB cable to charge a CyBook. Does anybody know what's so special about the Bookeen USB cable?
