Actually, I'm afraid I have to say that it doesn't help at all...

There's no problem with USB charging the Sony Readers other than it's arguable that it has an overly strict adherence to the USB spec, such that it declines to take power from when it could do so, when the other end doesn't communicate.

There is no basis in saying that it "messes up the reader" and while a PSP charger had advantages, saying that they were "not meant to be charged up via the USB" is totally incorrect and scaremongering.
