The people at Mark/Space, who make The Missing Sync for many devices, would be my best bet for having the skillset to make such a utility.

As for USB properties, when I look in the Apple System Profiler, it lists the Sony Reader as "Sony Portable Reader System" with a product ID of 667. So, the Mac can talk to it over USB, and recognize it, but nothing else.

When I plug in my Librie, I get similar results: it comes up as "Sony E-book Reader", with a product ID of 344, but no USB mass storage.

I think the internal memory of both readers (as well as any installed memory sticks) are not connected to the USB port. The readers are computers, so they probably have to be running to talk to the internal storage.
