Why would any of you, who have already invested $300.00 plus dollars on a delightfully designed PRS-505 reader, purchase a substandard power adapter that allows you to efficiently charge your reader - penny wise dollar stupid.
I have three PSP's but I purchased the Sony PRS-505 power adapter from Sony because there is a certain continuity to my act - Sony Reader and Sony power adapter for Sony Reader and manufactured and WARRANTIED by Sony. To do otherwise is simply silly from a investment point of view.
Personally I think that $29.99 for a Sony PRS-505 power adapter is cheap for peace of mind.

Actually, from what I understand Sony themselves said the PSP charger is a good substitute. It's been tried and tested as well. If it makes you feel better, I did an insane amount of research before going out and buying a PSP charger to make sure it would work (I would not plug something into my 505 willy-nilly) and even when I did I bought the Sony branded one.
And also, my 505 was a gift.
