I came back to this thread to report I went shopping on eBay and got a UK wall plug that will take a USB connection for £1.49. (I ended up with 2, one of them I'll drop off in the states).

Earlier in the week Lidl were doing car chargers for mobile phones... and the tips for the car charger were interchangable with a USB cable I bought for my phone.

So now I have a car charger, wall socket, and USB cable, and I have tips for my Cybook, Mobile Phone, X5L. And the whole lot cost about 8 quid I think

I will not make mention of the innuendo. However I've found with the cable I was using it's not so much that it's too big and it won't work. It's more that I had to slide it in slowly and carefully, and gently work it around until she (the Cybook of course) lit up.
