I currently use them by connecting to one of the USB ports of my computer, so am just curious...  |
The USB port on the Sony Reader does not receive any power from the battery, so that light would not work, even if it did have the correct size USB plug (it's the mini USB plug.)
The USB port on the Sony is on the bottom, so that even if that light did work, it would be in the way of reading the text.
A regular booklight (I've got one which came with 2 lights and one recharger and works wonderfully and is lightweight so it doesn't significantly change the weight or balance of the Sony Reader) works just fine.
