Well, if they did, they would have charged more for the reader, and the customers would be pissed off. That's why they don't include a CD or a user manual either - the documentation is on the reader.
You get the minimum, and it works - you cannot say that you cannot charge the reader via USB.
This is a marketing strategy applied by many companies, since this reduces their cost - sometimes customers complain, sometimes they don't. I am sure that if we were talking about Apple, others would have a very critical opinion about it. Bu, since it's Sony, it's OK.
