Once, soon after I got my 505, I plugged it into my phone's wall charger (same USB connectors) to recharge. It totally depleted the charge. Why is that? And how can you tell what kind of USB will work? The connections are the same, to look at. Kind of freaked me out; I thought I had broken the reader.
