I charge my cybook for a USB mains charger that came with my iphone.

I was told that if was USB then the voltage would be fine to use to charge the cybook - and it is...

The current rating does not matter provided the charger can provide the charge current needed, at least, for the cybook. as 1000 is bigger than 500 yours would be fine.
