Well mine was posted out this morning so will hopefully be with me by tomorrow if not Friday. Will just get a few different one's out and check them. Glad you don't have to have the Sony Software installed as I didn't intend on doing anything with that. Have played around with both and find Calibre to be much more intuitive and functional.
Thanks for all your posts; may get a car charger just to be safe in the future too. Nothing worse than forgetting to charge something and having to suffer the consequences. |

It's worth mentioning that some companies take a dim view of plugging in storage devices into their machines without explict permission

I'm the lead IT Technician at my place so those decisions rarely apply to me lol
Also helps that the Network Manager is a close friend |

When you buy a PSP AC adapter for your Sony Reader, do not just buy any PSP AC adapter. Buy once that is certified as ain UL Listed. If not, you could be getting a cheap one that could possibly be a fire risk.

I've just realised I've got a PSP official mains charger from back in the day (not used it for ages!) so can use that for most charges. Thanks for all the advice; will look into getting a proper charger if I ever feel the need to. K |

Also, the Power Monkey with the PSP tip charges my Reader just fine (as expected). SO, I actually have a nice solar charger for my Reader! (This can be important if I find myself on a desert island--gotta take the PM with me and keep my Reader memory full if I'm on a boat!!!) |
