That is another piece of astounding daftness from Sony which I discovered for myself last week. At work with the Reader I saw it was down to one bar and wanted to take it away with me for a day. Decided to connect it to the USB of a computer that didn't have the Connect software installed.
After a couple of hours I disconnected it and set off on my trip. Only when I got on the train did I discover that my charging attempt had actually completely flattened the battery - and I didn't have the Sony charger with me! Grrrr!
