It's just a con to get you to pay another £25 for the bespoke Sony charger.

Oh, Burrellp --- don't be so cynical.

Yes the PSP AC Adaptor clearly says "5V" on it and the Sony says "5.2V" on it next to the charger hole. But I've been charging my Sony Reader with the PSP Adaptor for many months now and it works well. Other users have had the same experience. My PSP AC Adaptor cost less that $10US in Thailand and other folk have posted about similarly cheap alternatives available on eBay.
