Hello all!

After lurking for a while, reading all of the interesting (and not so interesting) topics here on the forum, I decided that I wanted a portable ereader, and dont need a whole lot of extra features. The PRS300 should arrive on my doorstep in a couple of hours.

Now I read somewhere that you can charge your ereader with a PSP charger, but not with a standard USB (ipod) wall plug.

Has anyone tried the USB wall plug that came with the PSP Go? I dont dare to try without knowing for sure. New gadgets shouldnt explode. On day one.

So, hope to speak to you guys often!

Mark

Edit: The Go USB charger is 5 volt, and legitimate from Sony. And to restate my question, can someone with more tech knowledge tell me if there is any risk in trying?
